Hello N900 users,
I have been reading a lot on this forum about the emulator DrNokSnes. Can some one be so kindly to post a short yet powerfull guide / walkthroug on how to get this installed an running ?

(p.s do you really need to download the sdk and compile or is it also possable to get a compiled one.)

Thanks in advance!

A simple search would've guided you to download Drnoksnes..

Here you go: http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php...ight=drnoksnes

And for installing all I did was open X-Terminal and typed:
Code:
dpkg -i <filename>.deb

dpkg : requires super user privilege

Easy: wait until a more official release. And please close this thread, we have too many of this kind already...

You have to download Rootsh so you can have root access. After that you type "sudo gainroot" in x-term.
Then you type "dpkg -i filename.deb"

I had to install some zeemote control before it would work also.

It's linux, so you need to learn the basics first. I would realllllly recommend knowing what you are doing before trying it on the device! - especially if you are considering getting root access.....

Here is a list of linux commands. Or here

I installed drnosness but i got the message
dependency problems prevent configuration of drnoksnes : drnoksnes depends on libzeemote-config is installed.
dpkg : error processing drnoksnes (--install):
dependency problems - leaving unconfigurated
Errors were encountered while processing : drnoksness


So I installed
libzeemote-dev_1.0.5-maemo1_armel.deb
libzeemote_1.0.5-maemo1_armel.deb

Then i install drnoksnes_1.2.4_armel.deb again and i get the same message. Am i doing something wrong ?
