The damn thing still hasn't arrived, so maybe it will be obvious.

Anyway...

If I want to compile something, say slrn, can I cross compile on my linux box and install the result, or do I need to compile on the n800, and if so do I need to add programming repositories?

(and do I need to build myself a Debian box, as I run Fedora?)

is there a software/compiling howto anywhere, or is it a matter of combing through forum posts?

Is there a master list of repositories anywhere?

is there a list of what libraries are available? What languages?
