Hi r4yd3n!

I haven't been chekcing the forums lately, so I did not see this before.

I've never compiled anything on the Tablet itself, and I don't think I'd like to do that. Anything moderately large would take forever!

To compile applications, I installed the Maemo SDK+, following the instructions at http://maemo-sdk.garage.maemo.org/install.html (note, it is NOT the MaemoSDK you installed, this one uses scratchbox2).

To compile applications for OS2007HE, you need the Bora rootstrap, and if you want to compile applications for OS2008HE you need the Chinook rootstrap. You can have more than one rootstrap installed, although I don't remember how to switch between them.

I remember having some problems with the Chinook rootstrap which I solved by linking some files. If you run into similar problems when compiling (gcc bailing out), let me know and I can try to find out what I did (it's been a while...).

Good luck!

Pablo B.
