<DIV><SPAN class=327141112-06102006><FONT face=Arial size=2>To start with I'm
completely new to maemo. I'm very interested in the environment and planned to

<DIV><SPAN class=327141112-06102006><FONT face=Arial size=2>I'm running a X86
desktop with latest debian unstable installed. I downloaded the .debs from
scratchbox.org. (The ones pointed out from the installation tutorial:

<DIV><SPAN class=327141112-06102006><FONT face=Arial size=2>The installation
went fine, I said that my user should be able to use scratchbox, a new group was

<DIV><SPAN class=327141112-06102006><FONT face=Arial size=2>So I
did:</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=327141112-06102006><FONT face=Arial

<DIV><SPAN class=327141112-06102006><FONT face=Arial size=2>And got the

*Scratchbox*, the cross-compilation SDK!</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=327141112-06102006><FONT face=Arial size=2>Scratchbox is a
self-contained mini-distribution that contains all the<BR>tools needed to
configure and cross-compile Open Source software using<BR>GNU make and
*autoconf*. All the software configuration, compilation<BR>and
installation is done in a sandbox environment exactly like on your<BR>target
device. This is achieved by using chroot to limit system<BR>visibility for
configuration scripts you run from this shell, into what<BR>exists inside the
Scratchbox sandbox.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=327141112-06102006><FONT face=Arial size=2>The Scratchbox
utilities are:<BR> sbox-config - Change your compilation

<DIV><SPAN class=327141112-06102006><FONT face=Arial size=2>So as I see there
are two problems here, it does not find the scratchbox.config, and it believes
that I'm currently running any other scratchbox sessions.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=327141112-06102006><FONT face=Arial size=2>This makes it
impossible to switch target to another (which is the next step in the
tutorial).</FONT></DIV>
