Re: [maemo-developers] Maemo ARMEL server
Hi Andrew, I came from the other side to the problem. A lot of problems one have with unported debian application is, that one is missing keyboard support and right mouse click and maybe the size of the screen is to small. With vncviewer one can overcome all this problems, as one can use nearly all debian applications as can be tried connecting to a standard debian PC. One possibility is, that the Xvnc - vncviewer setup can extend your MUD-builder to using graphical applications. At least non GTK applications which need a keyboard can not be used without this as far as I understand it. I thought about a different type of setup: Something like set up a guest debian e. g. on the internal flash which uses an Xvnc X-server. This guest debian would be independend from maemo and can be used for all applications, which you need but which are not ported. But I am not sure, how to set up. I hope I understood MUD correctly. Please let me know, if I missed your way to use (non gtk) graphical applications with keyboard.
