Which is why I asked for the exit code ("echo $?" shows the last exit code).

BTW, I found this for the python gui:

but all of them require me to install maemo SDK. I remember I had trouble installing the scratchbox when i tried to install it.
No need for the SDK, you can do Python development just fine in-device, I do it all the time (sshfs so I can use more decently sized keyboard and display plus my favourite editor [pygtkeditor I use sometimes directly on the device]).

Port 8081 should not require root privileges but it doesn't hurt to check (type "root" [install rootsh if you haven't] to get root shell without SSH).
