BTW, I have many command-line apps now working, and I am working on building a Yum repository that works for Everything and Updates, since the one at linux.org.uk does not have repodata for them. In the meantime users can attempt to use the development repository at

http://ftp.linux.org.uk/pub/linux/ar...arm/os/Fedora/

It seems fairly complete and has a repodata directory so you "should" be able to use it just by enabling it. If not I suppose it could be added manually to yum. I haven't tried it yet.

To get X to work in a Fedora file system mounted at boot probably the easiest thing is to copy over from Maemo /usr/bin/Xomap and the touchscreen library it needs, which is which is /usr/lib/ts-0.0.so.0. Obviously there will be a lot of other stuff that will need to be copied as well to get it bootable. Of course copying files should only be viewed as a temporary measure until actual working RPM packages can get built.
