Hello!

I'm definitely NOT a programmer, in fact... I'm SHIT!

BUT! I have made two hello worlds for N900 using the SDK.
I don't even know how to use Linux, but since lingering around here I have been learning new things and a willingness to learn..

The SDK includes an N900 emulator, but it's cut down. There is no Xterm and it's not available in application downloads.
I managed to find a way on google (maemo.talk) and have xterm in the emulator! (fakeroot via scratchbox)

This isn't just a pointless thread - I mentioned here that I want to port Arduino to Pandora (and N900), but I had ZERO F**KING clue what was involved, I just didn't understand.. After spending all day playing with Linux (Mint) and this I am getting a grasp of the basics, and now I have a testing ground (I had no ARM devices to test on)

Does anyone here have a guide or can anyone help me with a guide on how to port software? I have the complete SVN (Subversion) of Arduino I'm just not 100% sure where to start. Also, I'm not too worried about the avrdude or anything, just the basic GUI is first on my list.

Here's the good news! I have two pictures!
