Max, click the words "big image file" in the description. It's a hot link to the bzipped tarball of the image file.
Run OpenOffice.org 3, the Gimp 2.6, Firefox 3, Java apps, the LXDE environment and many other Debian applications right in OS2008 by installing this package and then downloading a big image file to your SD card. You'll need 1.5 GB available.
NOTE THAT THIS IS THE OS2008 VERSION FOR N8x0 TABLETS!

Now an Extras / free package, with all source code available in the git repository of the garage project!

Just perfect! I have found no real cons. Debian apps are a little slow but its because N810's hardware parametres.
I am under the impression that some people have managed to make the sound work within this app, say from iceWiesel or say if you install Rhythmbox, but I cannot find any explanation on how?
But this a chroot environment... There is something similar to Android, but it's very slow and limited. when a REAL porting of Openoffice/Gimp/QCad for Maemo?
This is the single most useful package for the pro user of the Internet Tablets as we know them :-) VLC won't work though, as other video programs. But true pearls like openoffice.org work beautifully, given that you wait for them to open. I've used also other nice applications like rlplot (a scientific graphs editor), the firefox browser (as iceweasel), other browsers like midori and kazehakase, without forgetting the gnome alsa mixer, which will satisfactorily boost the volume of your tablet audio output.
Sir, could you supply the link where it's possible to download the big ISO file ( 1,5 Gb ) to put on the SD card that containt the programs OpenOffice, Gimp, Jawa & Firefox ? Thanks a lot
Sir, could you please supply the link where it's possible to download the large ISO file ( 1.5 GB ) to put into the SD card that contain OpenOffice + Gimp + Jawa & Firefox ? Thanks a lot
Installing should not be a problem but the performance is not that good (speedwise) even if you install it just for openoffice.
I use notes and google-docs for docs, there's a good spreadsheet that opens most files created by other softwares including xlsx http://mobilevdr.garage.maemo.org/gnumeric.install
Hope that helps!!
I really like this thing because it comes with a java enabled browser which I am still missing on maemo. Unfortunately, java only works within the virtual machine for me so far. In general the entire vm is a bit sloppy and the ui is not yet as tablet-friendly as I hoped. However, it's also possible to start apps directly in maemo without launching the vm and the apps are a lot more performant in this mode. Overall it's "not quite there yet" but a great thing to have if you can spare the space :)
can somebody help me? im not able to install this app, because, the «Anidel» repertory not exist.. or someting like that ... help me please, i want openoffice on my N800!!!
tkx
