How to install Maemo Mapper 1.3.2, and other software on Nokia N800

becomeroot
xterm
ssh
maemo-mapper
libsqlite (needed for mm)
flite (needed for mm)
proj (needed for mm)

I have had some issues so I documented my journey, if anyone wants to follow, feel free. I take no responsibility for damage to anyones equipment. I have reflashed several times while playing with this and it all seems very safe. Not following these exact steps messed me up a few times, but this seems to be the quickest way to get up and running. This should also help any new user who want to install some software.



Installing N800

Flashed to latest Nokia OS 2007 51-6

Connect N800 to internet

I installed becomeroot, from Application 2006 Catalog
http://eko.one.pl/maemo/dists/mistra....1-2_armel.deb


I Added all the BORA Repositories as of this posting (listed below)
http://maemo.org/maemowiki/ApplicationRepositories
On Application Manager, Go to tools > Application Catalog > New
Then fill in the following repositories information, adding all of them
-------------------------
Maemo repository
Web address
http://repository.maemo.org/

Distribution
bora

Components
free non-free extras

Applications
FIXME

-------------------------
Kernel Concepts
Web address
http://downloads.kernelconcepts.de/maemo3

Distribution

Applications

Web address
http://maemo-hackers.org/apt/

Distribution
bora

Components
main
------------------------

when your done adding them click <close>
It will ask you
Refresh package list?

Click <Yes>

I then installed xterm from Application Manager

Exit the Application Manager

start xterm from Extras menu
sudo gainroot
apt-get install ssh
cd /etc/apt
mv sources.list sources.list-orig

(This is the full repository with both n800 and n770) Some 770 rep are disabled, they were not responding at one time or another. Might be some missing ?

http://penguinbait.com/sources.list

open the above address in the web browser on n800 and go to "webpage" > "save as". If you save it with its default name sources_list, in the default location (Documents) run the following

mv /home/user/MyDocs/.documents/sources_list.htm /etc/apt/sources.list


apt-get update (wait 3 minutes)
apt-get upgrade
apt-get install maemo-mapper
apt-get install flite
apt-get install proj


You can test flite
flite -t "maY mo mapper, rocks"



Have fun, the 2006 software should be listed in the application manager along with the 2007 software. You can delete or disable or keep them running OK its 2:57AM I am babbling, see ya
