@realmic

This is why you've gotta check the previous post man. There's no reason to run Preenv as Root. The ONLY reason someone needs Root is simply to change the permissions(chmod) of appinfo.json so that it can be executed(+x). I probably should have read your earlier post a bit better to double-check that, but again this goes out to everyone DO NOT RUN Preenv as root(unless there's some specific case that others have verified that it is necessary).

Ok I just figured I'd give an update since there hasn't been a response to my original post. I've tried to install the Grooveshark app using Preenv and I'm a little hung up. It seems possible(until I potentially hit some issues with libs), but I just lack knowledge of the structure of WebOS apps.

I followed the same instructions that worked for installation of games. When I get to the
Code:
desktopgen appinfo.json
I get a message:
Code:
'type' attribute is mandatory (and should be 'pdk')
I've poked around in the App folder of the Grooveshark to see if any of it seemed usuable or if I could substitute something, but I've got nothing. There are stylesheets, source.json, and framework_config.json files to work with in the main program folder. Any ideas?

This generally happens when trying to install a game that is a web based app rather than a stand alone. I have yet to figure out a way to do it.

Do you think it would be completely out of this realm to possible edit these values(which is what I imagine that 'type' is)? I understand we're already tip-toeing the line of legalities with all of this. Why can't these developers just port these over!?!

I'm kind of seeing a second life for both platforms if we could allow some kind of community WebOS/Maemo hybrid so they could have our useful and best apps and we can have theirs.

Also, maybe I'm going too quickly or asking too many questions, but has anyone successfully found a way to save the games state or copy the save file of the running game?

Because the web apps require the Palm WRT in their OS. If you want these apps to work on N900 you will need to port the js bindings to the underlying Palm libs to work on the Nokia WRT and connect to Maemo libs. Good luck...

P.S. Its not impossible...

thats not really a lot to go on. What does it say when you run it from the command line.
