Yes, sorry, I have updated it as a part of new kernel for latest firmware, get this one

Fanoush, is it possible to use your modules without custom kernel? When I trying to insmod usbserial.ko on N800 (using latest official OS image - RX-34_2008SE_2.2007.50-2_PR_COMBINED_MR0_ARM.bin) the device are just rebooting...

Maybe I've missed something, but can you give a hint how to compile ftdi_sio and usbserial for official kernel?

Thanks.

Hello . . .is anyone still reading this thread?

I'd like to get my n800 to talk to my arduino. I'm not a developer, and I'm a total linux and arduino noob. So I didn't exactly follow the disscussion so far. Are you all attempting to port the Arduino IDE to the nokia? And if not, what type of nokia/Arduino application are you all working on?

I'm still getting my n810 setup at this point, but as a thought experiment, buying a 770 or n800 and interfacing to arduino or the irobot platform via serial seems like a nice way to do some mobile robotics. With the NITs you've got a lot of benefits in a very cost-effective package:
+ sound output, even speech synthesis via flite
+ ready-to-use wireless comms
+ easily runs sophisticated control logic in a high level language like python
+ nice touchscreen UI ready to use via standard toolkits
+ good battery life
+ small form-factor
+ webcam for additional sensing on n800

Personally I would try to minimize the amount of code I had to write for arduino, using it as a "dumb" interface board and writing most stuff in python or something similar on the NIT. That also makes it easier to "stub out" the arduino and do testing on a desktop box.

Hmmmmm. . .I guess I'm not really clear on what your setup would entail. It sounds like you maybe would want to enterface the tablet and arduino, and then have the the two talking to each other via a preestablished program. Like maybe you build a robot, and then attach both the tablet and arduino to said robot, then the table is like the big brain for the robot and it sends instructions to the arduino.

Does that sound similar to what you had in mind?

Yes... exactly. The arduino can control servo motors and things, like in qwerty12's link. So the NIT might command the arduino "servo position 120" and arduino does it. Arduino might provide sensor readings to the NIT like "ultrasound sensor reading 20".

Here's a much more complicated example with the irobot create:

http://www.instructables.com/id/S34USUFF5Y3YQT8/
The NIT could replace items like the speech synthesizer (with flite) and xbee radio link (with wifi or bluetooth) and provide some convenient interface buttons.

That sound pretty cool and certainly feasible. Although, I am a true noob when it comes to all this stuff, so I honestly don't know for sure.

Do you have any idea if the Arduino BT could be made to communicate with the tablet via Bluetooth?

I'm still a bit of a noob too, but it sounds like the Arduino BT uses the bluetooth serial port profile (SPP) and there seem to be other references that SPP is supported on maemo. So I would say that it sounds doable.
