Well my respect and appreciation for you all just keeps getting higher and higher the more I try to do with my N800.

I am trying to port the atari800 emulator to os2008 and after configuring it for sdl and compiling it does work, after a fashion. (see photos)

If anyone has any hints on how to hildonize it properly (yes, I have read the 'Maemo 4.0 Porting Guide' and to be honest I had less idea how to do it when I finished reading that than I did before I read it.)

Atari800 doesn't use glade, which is the example used in the porting guide (it doesnt have a UI persay, just the window it runs in.) I am not sure it even really needs hildonizing to be honest.

Sound is another issue, when running the basic cart/rom there is supposed to be a short phht noise and then the READY prompt. well the phht noise never stops though the other sounds seem to work properly (key press and such) you can use the dpad to arrow around the screen and the center button is enter.

I am going to create a 'boot disc' for it and pop it into the 'drive' and see how much else is working.

So anyway, just putting this out there and if anyone has any tips, ideas or just wants to offer suggestions please do.

Thanks,

-John
