 ====== Installing Maemo Development Environment ====== ====== Installing Maemo Development Environment ======
 +
 +===== Installation instructions =====
 +
 +If you want to use your own computer at Code Camp, you can install Maemo SDK+ by following [[http://maemo-sdk.garage.maemo.org/install.html|Install notes]] at Maemo SDK home site. Installation instructions are provided for Ubuntu and Debian distributions. For Ubuntu 9.04, correct repository for packages is:
 +
 +    deb http://maemo-sdk.garage.maemo.org/download/host ubuntu-jaunty free
 +
 +In section 3.1, instead of installing ''sudo maemo-sdk install tools etch-2008'', install newer tools with command ''sudo maemo-sdk install tools lenny-2009-1''. For the rootstrap, select **diablo4.1.2** (section 4.1)
 +
 +To enable the usage of Internet Tablet via USB/Bluetooth/WLAN install host-pc-connectivity -package, see instructions from http://pc-connectivity.garage.maemo.org/2nd_edition/installation.html
 +
 +
 +
 +===== Additional tools and utilities =====
 +
 +==== Xephyr nested xserver ====
 +
 +Xserver-Xephyr 1.6.0, shipped with Ubuntu 9.04 is crashing with Maemo SDK+ environment. Therefore, for Ubuntu 9.04 users, downgrading to 1.5.2 is necessary. 
 +
 +  * {{:2009:xserver-xephyr_1.5.2-2ubuntu3_i386.deb|}} 
 +
 +Install with command  
 +
 +  dpkg -i xserver-xephyr_1.5.2-2ubuntu3_i386.deb
 +
 +System update is trying to re-install newer version. It can be prevented by putting following lines into ''/etc/apt/preferences''
 +
 +  Package: xserver-xephyr
 +  Pin: version 1.5.2*
 +  Pin-Priority: 1001
 +
 +
 +
 +==== Eclipse IDE ====
 +
 +JAVA runtime is required for running Eclipse IDE. To develop applications for Maemo with Eclipse:

 +      * CDT GNU toolchain build support
 +      * CDT GNU toolchain debug support
 +      * Eclipse CDT p2 toolchain installer

 +
 +[[http://esbox.garage.maemo.org/2nd_edition/installation.html|ESBox installation instructions]]
 + 
 +  - Install Java runtime, if not installed
 +  - download and unzip necessary .zip packages of **esbox 2.0.0M5 (beta 2 prerelease)** from [[https://garage.maemo.org/frs/?group_id=192|garage project page]], one zip ending with -common.zip and one for the specific system, e.g. -linux.gtk.x86.zip
