@vimcat: It probably just loops. If you're logged in remotely you can use 'top' or 'ps -ef' to find the pid, and kill it. If you're not logged in, try pressing either the 'home' key or the escape key (I forgot which), it'll allow you to get back to the xterm window where you can enter ctrl C to abort it.

Well, I extracted all files to a home dir, also the rom file, but when I type ./pose I only get a permission denied. I used chmod +x ./pose
The file pose is
-rwxr-xr-x 1 user root 3281932 Apr 5 05:46 pose
Should be root:root ?
I tried to use as root and as a normal user with the same luck

It shouldn't matter what the owner.group is. FYI my installed pose is also user.root, as yours.
Check that you didn't inadvertantly set your home directory non-writable or something (start xterm, enter ls -ld) because I think it's trying to write to a .poserc file or something.. but I thought that happened a good while after it started ok.
I can't see right away what the problem is. I have it installed in /usr/local/bin/ (with the PATH accordingly), but I don't see why it shouldn't execute out of /home/user/.
Or did you install it to a directory on a card? That wouldn't work, as those filesystems are mounted noexec.

It doesn't work for me in /media/mm1/ , copied to /home and works.
Now, I'm not able to use any skin.
Also, there is anyway to share a dir between MMC and pose?, to use documents from my old palm...

It turns out that if one sets the "POSER_DIR" env variable, POSE can find skins just fine. In my case, a simple:

export POSER_DIR=/home/user/pose_nokia_2006

worked wonders

so what is the status of the port as of 5/21
I really want to use it, but was discourage when I only got 75% of the screen....

yeah, it'll be really great if POSE for the N770/N800 can be completed. It'll help a great deal for apps use...

Hi,

Does the POSE emulator have access to N800 resources - ie can it access bluetooth data for example from a GPS receiver

Pete

Thanks for testing. Your feedback is noted. I can't address the N800 display problems, as i have no N800.

Currently rotating screen, doublesizing and keyboard input are top on my list. Networking and filesharing after that.

You don't need to rotate! If you make custom skin without all the borders it fits just fine. My ugly hack has still a bit of unused space between the screen and writing area. Also there is now quite a lot of empty space on the right. One could use that for graffiti cheatsheet or for virtual keyboard pop-up button if writing graffitis would be too much for some.

Here is picture with the ugly skin without borders:

Here you can compare and see how high the virtual keyboard pops up:


Now binding right-click menu to menu-bar would make it half usable. And adding keyboard-popup for some of the pose dialogs would make it better.

BTW: pose is packaged is Debian, so you don't need to repackage it. just add "deb-src http://ftp.fi.debian.org/debian etch main contrib non-free" to /etc/apt/sources.list in scrachbox and run "apt-get -b source fluid pose". Only compilation issues are with fltk: it won't compile straight away, I think you need to modify builddeps first.
