Hi,

Mulling over buying a N800, it is a choice between the N800 or a second hand sub-notebook that will run linux.

I cannot find any documentation on what basic linux commands are available in the standard build.

I am also interested to run a simple httpd that can server php pages and handle perl cgi scripts. Is this possible out the box ?

du, echo, egrep, env, expr, false, fgrep, find, free, fuser, getty,

Additional Busybox binaries are available which support more commands and can be run alongside the existing busybox. Most other apps - xterm, ssh - can be installed from http://maemo.org/downloads

If you have the source code for your httpd server, set yourself up with a Maemo development environment (see maemo.org), cross compile the code and you're almost there.

the nginx http server/proxy is packaged up as well and available from a repository.
