First of all I would like to thank you so much for compiling this!

Secondly, I have some problems with the install. I followed your new instructions for basic installation found on http://sumoudou.org/相撲外:GNU%20Emacs%...ia%20N900.html. It does install but gives me the following message:
Code:
Failed to open connection to "session" message bus: (null)
I don't know if this is problematic, but the fact remains that I cannot start emacs from the icon in the application menu and not on the command line if I just try to run "emacs" (or "emacs-23.1). I have to give include the full path (that is /opt/emacs.../bin/emacs) so it seems that the I probably have to export the path manually (no big problem).

A bigger problem seems to be related to the input method. Have you compiled it with some specific setting regarding input method? Unlike in other native maemo apps the Fn and Shift keys are not "sticky" -- you have to hold them down when hitting other keys and cannot just press them, release them and then hit the key they shall modify. This is rather annoying on the small keyboard.

There is also a problem related to the tool bar. As long as it is turned on, I cannot se the mini-buffer (no big problem since I always put "(tool-bar-mode -1)" in my .emacs).

Finally, I cannot open a directory in emacs (just individual files). If I try to, I get the following message:
Code:
Listing directory failed but `acces-file' worked
Are these problems also present in your install?

The very best regards and many thanks
