[edit] Known Issues
- Known issues for Beta 1 release (feel free to update this wiki page)
- Diablo 4.1.2 device requires kernel patch from here http://tablets-dev.nokia.com/maemo-dev-env-downloads.php to be flashed to the Tablet for USB Networking to work with Windows host PC
- Diablo 4.1.2 device requires hildon-desktop patch to be installed to the Tablet from pc-connectivity Garage repository (see instructions from here http://pc-connectivity.garage.maemo.org/beta1/installation.html) for VNC client to work on host PC
- PyMaemo installation meta packges in Diablo extras repository (maemo-python-env and maemo-python-device-env) do not install python2.5-distutils as default dependency and thus installation package creation with setup.py may not work (this has been agreed to be fixed by PyMaemo project)
- Ubuntu Desktop based Maemo SDK Virtual Image (out-of-the-box ready development environment) will be released couple of days AFTER Eclipse Integration Edition 2 Beta 1 release as it needs to include this Beta 1 release products :)
- to search memory leaks Valgrind needs to be installed manually to the x86 target http://maemo.org/development/tools/).
- to make performance profiling OProfile needs to be installed manually to the device (http://maemo.org/development/tools/).
[edit] Installation Notices
Notice 1: If only Maemo Pluthon plugin for Eclipse is used for Python on device development it does not reguire Maemo SDK installation on host PC.
Notice 2: All configurations require Maemo PC Connectivity to be installed and configured to work to the Internet Tablet and Host PC Connectivity to the host PC BEFORE installation of Eclipse components can be started.
Notice 3: All Eclipse components can be installed from ESbox or Pluthon garage projects, PC Connectivity from Diablo extras-devel repository and SDK Virtual Images from maemo development environment download page http://tablets-dev.nokia.com/maemo-dev-env-downloads.php
Notice 4: Eclipse 3.4.2 IDE for C/C++ Developers and all needed generic Eclipse plugins and ESbox and Pluthon plugins can be installed together with installation packages available from ESbox and Pluthon garage projects.
