I got it to work, but only after I changed the '--resizableDevice 800 375' part. Maybe that device needs to be added to the version of MicroEmulator I used (the one from the link in the FP)?

This is what I did to get OperaMini 5 running from the menu (based on Darkgunmans instructions, italics are the differences):

---------
1. Start X-Term, type 'sudo gainroot' for root access.
2. Copy the 'jre' folder to /home/opt/ (including the Opera 5 jar & jad files)
cd to /home/opt/jre/bin and use chmod +x java to grant executable rights.
3. Create a symlink to use Java from the command line:
ln -s /home/opt/jre/bin/java /usr/bin/java
4. Navigate to: cd /usr/share/applications/hildon
5. Use the ls command to list the .desktop files in the folder
Copy an existing file with a new name:
cp x-chat.desktop microemu.desktop
6. Using Leafpad edit the fileby typing: leadpad microemu.desktop
7. The edited file should look something like this:
[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Name=MicroEmu Opera
Exec=java -jar /home/opt/jre/bin/microemulator.jar --device org/microemu/device/resizable/device.xml /home/opt/jre/bin/opera-mini-5.0.17443-advanced-en.jad
Icon=Opera
Type=Application
X-Osso-Type=application/x-executable

Change the icon to anything you like. This post explains how to add your own icon. I made this one:


Save the file and look in the applications menu for the new shortcut. It should launch MicroEmulator full screen with Opera Mini ready to start (using the enter key, the start button doesn't work)

The display defaults to 800x400, so it would be nice to get the 'resizabledevice' working. Does anyone know what I should do differently?
