Hi!
I've posted a second video about Sygic, where you can see fullscreen-mode, portrait-mode and no warnings at the start.

Also I've posted this How-To on my blog in german, too.

Fullscreen-mode:
open X-Terminal and type in the following:
Code:
root
vi /usr/share/applications/hildon/sygic.desktop
move cursor with arrow buttons.
click button "a" for editing mode.
change
Code:
Exec=/opt/sygic/Drive/Maemo/drive -cwd=/home/user/MyDocs/Drive/Maemo
to
Code:
Exec=/opt/sygic/Drive/Maemo/drive -cwd=/home/user/MyDocs/Drive/Maemo -rfull
click Esc on screen for quit editing mode
type in
Code:
:w
and hit enter to save

Next enable all menu entries (and therefore the portrait mode) and disable the warning.

Connect your N900 with PC.
Open the 32GB memory (for example G: )
Change to this directory:
Code:
G:\Drive\Maemo
rename menu.ini for example to menuold.ini.
save and close

open settings.ini.
search for
Code:
showSafetyMsg=true
and change it to
Code:
showSafetyMsg=false
Attention! There are two lines, both have to end with =false.
save end close
