Here it is a modded hildon-desktop that make your app menu looks like the n9's!
Give it a try and tell me what you think

Here are some images!
Portrait:

Landscape:

For installing use these commands on terminal:

Code:

root
cd /home/user/MyDocs
dpkg -i hildon-desktop_2.2.153~1_armel.deb
killall hildon-desktop

P.S: For seeing the full name of the icons you have to change the font! If you will find a nice font just let us know, so we can use it as well! (if somebody has n9's font for n900 maybe could upload it here!)

Haha yeah these old good days

Coderus had also added if I am right some swipe to symbian too!
But then he bought a n9 and he didn't do anything else about symbian(I wouldn't as well if I was him...).

So if it was possible on symbian, I think that it is on maemo as well!

Is there any way to do this by editing the hd-launcher-grid from the source code of the hildon desktop?
Here is the file from the source code I am talking about.

This is a nice find

But this is just about the columns on portrait and on landscape, there should be something similar for the rows right?

How did you made it working for the n900?
Do I have to do what the INSTALL file says?
I have the source on my linux virtual desktop, but I don't really know how to make it a deb or something working for the n900
