Yes, but I'm talking about the interpreter itself. Alterego never finished the Ruby-bindings for Maemo, but luckily they have worked good enough for now. But if Nokia makes more radical changes, I doubt the bindings will work anymore.

Pushwall, I could try to rewrite the ui stuff with RubyGame or completely with Vala or such if there's demand for it But let's see what the future brings.

Ok, I understand now. That is a fairly serious problem.

I really hope Nokia stops making radical changes to the API of Maemo, or at least does the Microsoft thing and allows legacy stuff to keep working in new versions.

Red pill, though, was unnecessary; since libruby depended on libssl0, it should have been pulled in automatically (now that you added the SDK repo) when you tried libruby or rubybox again, so you don't need to be able to manually select it.

I'd recommend going back to blue-pill; anything you need red-pill for is, imho, better done with dpkg/apt-get on the command line, because they give more useful feedback about what they're doing, anyway. As for the SDK repo, generally it should be disabled when you're not trying to install particular software from it.
Now you've got me worried.
(for the record, I only stayed in red-pill mode long enough to install libssl0, I immediately returned to blue-pill)

Now, if I am understanding you, I should not have used the libssl0 from the Maemo diablo/sdk repository. The only other repository that had it was Maemo Chinook. Since my tablet is running Diablo, I uses the diablo/sdk repository, not knowing that sdk is a synonym for "danger".
(Yes, I know that SDK means "software development kit")

To be safe, what should I do? I'm figuring that I should uninstall libssl0, the ruby files, and RubyBox, remove the Maemo diablo/sdk from the App Manager's list, add Maemo Chinook to the App Manager's list, then just reinstall the ruby files and RubyBox. Is this correct?

No, you're fine with libssl0; just disable the repo (no need to delete), and you're fine. There are some dangerous packages in there, but libssl0 is fine.

No more RubyBox NOOoooo

Put me on the list of those who love RubyBox, it makes changing parameters on DosBox so much easier.

I need help - is it possible to get the access to the funktion key with a n810 hardware keyboard? I'm trying to use lotus agenda on it - and can't do it because I was not able to hit the F1 to F10...

Is it possible?

cybic, install xkbd



Anyone else having problems with doxbox and the n810 keyboard? I'm running dosbox with xkbd and even when trying to run a simple command like dir /w dosbox goes 'crazy'. Clicking / on xbd sometimes gives me another charactor or gives me / twice. If I use the hardware Fn key to enter / Fn gets locked on so I can never enter the w. The only fix I found is to smash on a bunch of xkbd keys until Fn is released. Sometimes if I just let it sit for a minute or two, it'll release the Fn key by itself. Rediculous. Anyone else have these problems? This app is great for running a lot of useful apps, but the UI is horrible.


Also, how do I restore dosbox if I minimize it by mistake?

Hello guys.
I found interesting link http://members.chello.sk/apauer/dosbox4/dosbox4.html. It is DOSBox dynamic recompiler.
It's possible to integrate this arm-core?
