I'm considering buying the n900, but I have some questions about running regular linux softwares on it:
1. If I have a debian installation file on my pc of lets say open-office, and I want to run it on the n900. so, can I simply copy the open-office installation file to the n900, install it, run it and that's it? Was it possible with the n8x0?
2. What "cross-compiling" is and how it differentiate from "porting"? Do I need to cross-compile every application?
I don't know enough about it so I thought you would be able to help me. I wasn't sure where to post this thread, I hope it's the suitable place.
