Excellent! Got it working! Thanks again!

Great! I hope you have some neat 68k Mac programs to run on it. It's neat having extra word processing, spreadsheet, graphics, math, etc. applications usable on our NITs.

Maybe someday I'll be able to hack the Maemo code to allow 256 colors so a ton of awesome games (Maelstrom, Escape Velocity, Aperion, Marathon, Crystal Crazy, Gypsy, etc.) are also able to run on our NITs.

I think it's more like hacking the Maemo X server to allow it to be switched into this mode - that'd be the fastest way, to run and to develop.

I think Marathon on the IT is pushing it a little... unless you use a small window size.

Thanks for the input. I was thinking more along the line of using the Basilisk II JIT source code without the JIT in order to maybe use SDL for graphics (and it includes various fixes for running certain applications and games correctly compared to the older Basilisk II source we used).

Here is a screenshot of unique311's SDL build of Basilisk II JIT. It's slow and suffers from the sticky mouse, not being hildonized, and non-full screen, but can run at 256 colors.

Another viable combination of Maemo programs to make Basilisk II useful on a N800.

I am not even a newbe, just someone who has been very interested in the N810. I find it fascinating that you can run an old version of the Mac OS on the IT. What would be great is running a PIM program under the Mac OS. I was wondering if anyone had suggestions or if anyone had tried the Brewster People software at

Thanks

That program looks nice. I use my old Now Contact and Now Up-To-Date, though there are a number of others. Even the old Palm Desktop for 68k might do the trick.

Wow, that looks really nice. I need to go and set this up sometime.

Thanks. Someday when I quit my stressful technical support call center job for a major cell phone company, I'm going to take a month off and work on the Basilisk II on your Nokia Internet Tablet! tutorial website, as setting things up are a little complicated.

Uh oh. I'm not the first person to defile a NIT by running Internet Exploiter on it am I? Too bad networking hasn't been ported over yet.

Note that Basilisk II has file system access to the / directory and all subdirectories of the Maemo file system (such as SD cards).

The one-click launcher is a customizable program that comes with the Mac OS (before the "Dock"). I list in it some of the programs that I have installed at the moment.

I played a little Dungeon Master earlier. I think I'll try my "Dark Forces" (Star Wars FPS) next.
