I've been thinking of a similar app installation system for linux (also inspired by os x's .app). I was also thinking of including all dependencies as packages (opkg/deb/rpm/whatever) in the .app (or .pnd in this case) file and install them when the file is discovered, if there are no newer...

While Vala is pretty cool, it's dependant on GLib, can't use Qt (although it will be able to at some point) and still is quite immature and there is very little documentation for it. It's something to keep an eye out for, but not quite usable right now.

It may be a good idea to try the approach of the Darwine team, arm wine + userspace emulation in qemu, since no hardware gets emulated.

Qt-X11 with version 4.4 at least better be available by default. It works just fine on the beagleboard, there shouldn't be any problems.

You can stick with Java if you want. While GTK would be alright, Qt is without a doubt superior. Use it if at all possible from C++, Python, Ruby or even Java with Qt Jambi.

I think one of the shoulder buttons would work nicely.

With the exception of closed source plugins (adobe flash), everything in Firefox will work exactly like on a regular linux desktop.

Maybe something is wrong with the 'tubes'.

Try Nexuiz or the Phoronix test suite to make sure your OpenGL works fine. Could you try comenting out all rendering code from your client and replacing it with some stout messages ?

Are you sure that your C++ threading code is cross-platform? Have you tested it on vista on a dual-core cpu?

You need a cross-compiler for that. Look for packages called arm-gcc or stuff like that.

@Kramy I know I keep telling people this, but try Python :D

I don't think you'll need to care about the underlying sound system. As for sound libraries, SDL is fine for most purposes, but portaudio is really good for sound applications.
