There are plenty to choose from, but only one is portable enough to build in maemo out-of-box, and that's...



http://pupnik.de/dgen.html

It's fully open-source. Give it a shot and post results here. Install from file with app-manager (it2006) or dpkg -i (it2007/bora).

Start it from the terminal with dgen <romname> or create a shortcut with load-applet run or osso-statusbar-cpu applets.

To preempt the obvious questions, no, "gens" isn't going to be ported by me - it uses x86 assembly instructions. "Generator" might work someday, but it's barfing-up make-errors of a strange and mysterious kind.

If it's too slow for you, you're not drinking enough beer.

Cheers!
i started it on xterminal but it says error, any advice?
