I quickly tested Knots 2 on Mer X86 and it worked fine for music.

It woud be nice to have a list of Ubuntu apps that work or don't with notes on their usage.
Example: xboard installs but doesnt work because of font problems i couldn't solve.
Scid installs, works well, would benefit from board rotation.
Twitux works as Twitter client.
If someone starts such a list or table, observations should be dated, so one has a clue about whether they are still true.
When I installed and ran twitux from xterm I got quite a lot of warnings and errors, although it then started.
It did not appear to put an entry in the menu. Does anyone know how to manually create menu entries, or if either personal menu, or personal launcher works.
another issue, which I think is known, is that when I click a link such an "install now" green button, tear crashes on me.

While this is a very rough guide, it may help on GPS side:
http://wiki.maemo.org/Mer/Documentation/N810_GPS
And then locate a gpsd compatible mapping program.

I managed to get the system to freeze by clicking on the icons in the top bar, necessitating removing the batteries. But instabilities aside, which I can usually work around, the main issue I have is with the file-open dialog on non-hildon applications such as leafpad and gnumeric -- the dialog takes up about half the screen so that I can't read the directory/file listings. This makes it rather inconvenient to open files by guessing or remembering the order.
The fact that I can apt-get my way to happiness is awesome, once the file-open dialog gets sorted out.
If the ubuntu apps can be made to function well, then I can live without apps ported to hildon.

I agree, like some low-level hacking in the base libraries so an application is automagically hildonized. I read in another thread that qt for maemo already does it.

Sorry if it has already answered somewere, but
1) is possible to use the "soft.img" trick avaiable on the official firmware for Smart Q7 (the one that allows to install additional software on a SD card)? If yes, how to get it working?
2) How to edit the applications menu list as a workaround to the known issue [SmartQ7] Installing an application results in the new application always being placed in the Extras menu. ?
