I have installed gnugo on my N900 but it will not run. I find no icon to start. I am new here and I am only a user and no experience with X terminal or other complicated things.
Who can help??

(in Debian one can use MidnightCommander... maybe works in mc for n900)

3) copy usr/games/gnugo from unpacked deb file into your n900
You can use scp gnugo user@n900:/opt/usr/games/
(and before that: mkdir -p /opt/usr/games/)

4) install Java. You can download embeded edition from Sun (link and version of Java here:
http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=31291)
Also, install it somewhere in /home/user and not /home/user/MyDocs/, as it requires to create some symlinks which are not supported on MyDocs partition

5) download, unpack and run gGo http://www.pandanet.co.jp/java/gGo/
Code:
Nokia-N900-51-1:/home/nthx/in/gGo$ ../ejre1.6.0_10/bin/java -jar lib/gGo.jar
5) configure gGo's path to gnugo

6) Play ))
Hi;

I've followed these instructions by doing the following -

(NB GnuGo is already installed and playable via command line)

1 copied unpacked ARM java SE headful v6_21 directory to ~/java/
(I gather that's what you meant by 'installing' java SE? It has a bin dir, no makefiles)

2 copied gGo.jar to ~/java/lib/

However when I run the command

Code:
~/java/bin/java -jar ~/java/lib/gGo.jar
I get Permission denied.

When I use sudo along with the above (I have sudofier or whatever it's called installed) I get a command not found error returned from sudo

Code:
sudo: /home/user/java/bin/java: command not found
What am I doing wrong?

From a terminal, type /opt/gnugo/bin/gnugo --boardsize 9

You'll see the shell interface for gnugo, represented as an ASCII board with A-J listed on the x-axis and 1-9 on the y-axis. You play by typing in bingo style positions eg; c2 as a first move.

Getting a GUI to work for it is something I'm still trying to do

I assume there's a reason FSF decided to include GO standard in Linux - eg; it's the best board game EVAH

I wonder if Kigo works under easy debian?

Hi...
Quickly...
Note that ./bin/java is +x... (chmod +x ./bin/java) but I didn't have to do it
Note you have headful, I've got headless.. so try with that one..
Yes - installing = gtar xfvz...
make sure ~java is not on vfat partition.. but as far it's /home/user it will not be the case..

Good luck!
T.
