Ah, it turnes out it was a catalogue problem, following some advice I found a thread about catalogues and it was all about this very problem... adding that one mentioned catalog fixed everything and all the programs I couldn't get off maemo's website now install without a hitch.

Archmage, did you say there was a N64 emulator, or did you mean C64? Is there a N64 emulator, I highly doubt it...
Interestingly enough, the tablets are what made me make the move to full time Linux (That and the fact the SP1 "upgrade" on vista destroyed my Vista installation)
Anyway, welcome to ITT!!
welcome to the world of tablets, then.
...and linux. :-)

If I haven't mentioned I'm a newb then consider this official, Ièd never even used a tablet until last thursday and never messed around with linux either so this is all new to me.
Can you share what you have found ?? I am also a Newbie with tablets. I was hoping to be able to copy the apps to my pc and transfer them to the tablet for installation. But, not successfull in finding the .deb files.
