ok im good until i come to this part about[
"Create a new directory on /opt such as /opt/microemu3", PLS HELP CUZ I DONT KNOW WHAT OR WHERE /OPT IS TO put this file in there and uncompress it using
tar -zxvf <filename>.tar.gz AGAIN PLEASE, HOW DO I UNCOMPRESS

Also run this so you can run java later from anywhere:
ln -s /opt/microemu3/ejre1.6.0_21/bin/* /usr/bin/

2) Download MicroEmulator 3 - http://snapshot.microemu.org/microem...0-SNAPSHOT.zip

Again just place that on /opt/microemu3 and unzip the contents. It will create it's own directory in there - "microemulator-3.0.0-SNAPSHOT"

3) Download the official app (.jar file) here (as casketizer pointed out):
http://mobile.formula1.com/download/...7/Formula1.jar

And place it on a new /opt/F1 directory (for example).

Now at this point check that you can run MicroEemulator by running this:
java -jar /opt/microemu3/microemulator-3.0.0-SNAPSHOT/microemulator.jar

If everything is OK then do this:



I also created a desktop shortcut to automatically open the emulator and load the F1 app.

Save the formula1.png (attached) into "/opt/usr/share/icons/hicolor/64x64/apps"
and create a new file called "formula1.desktop" in "/usr/share/applications/hildon" with the following contents:



Go to the desktop, add the shortcut (might be called "F1 Live" in there) and run it - should just load ME and then the app a few seconds later. I needed a reboot for the icon/image to display properly - will get blue square icon until you do that.

Hopefully it will all work fine and you will get the timing app working in time for qualifying and the race. [/QUOTE]
