Oh yes Counter-Strike on N900 here I come! hahaha I know it's not possible, but one can dream right? :) :)

Re: Wine 1.3.4 on arm
 

The source code is included for that $10? If so, an attempt could be made to compile it against winelib. If not, then the announcement made at the start of this thread has moved Ecco Pro no closer to running on Maemo.

How is this being done, I know he is doing ssh first but how does all that hang together ?

X forwarding, theres a page in the wiki on doing in reverse (phone to desktop screen)

Re: Wine 1.3.4 on arm
 

That video is super neat, Wine on the N900 at it's best.

Re: Wine 1.3.4 on arm
 

On this video wine is not running on the N900 but on linux PC with the N900 logged in via openssh and opening photoshop on wine.
Then the X forwarding feature of openssh is used to send keyboard/mouse events from N900 to the PC and screen events from PC to N900. So in this video, the N900 only act like a dedicated screen/keyboard/mouse for photoshop.

Re: Wine 1.3.4 on arm
 

No, the source code is NOT included (much to many people's chagrin). I thought since it can run under WINE on desktop Linux, e.g., Ubuntu, it could likely run under WINE on a tablet. I'm wrong?

Re: Wine 1.3.4 on arm
 

The problem here being that the processor on a desktop PC and the processor in the n900 are different architectures. Desktop PCs and laptops use x86 (and x86_64 for 64-bit) processors while the n900 (along with most other phones) uses an ARM processor. You can't take a program that has been compiled for one architecture and run it on another, it just won't work, you can only run it using an emulator and an emulator takes a lot of processing power to just to emulate a much slower processor.

WINE for desktop Linux just needs to pretend to be Windows to get a program to run, it doesn't need to emulate a different processor. WINE for ARM would need to emulate an x86 processor as well as pretending to be Windows if it were to run a regular Windows program.

What WINE for ARM provides is a easy way to port programs written for Windows to Linux-based ARM devices using winelib, but you need the source code so you can recompile the program to run on an ARM processor.

Saw an updated message on Onion's blog:

Update 15.10.2010:
Using desktop mode makes using wine much nicer and keyboard input works too. Running winecfg is a bit problematic as it won't fit the screen properly but editing ~/.wine/user.reg and adding the following lines in the end enables desktop mode:

[Software\\Wine\\Explorer] 1287126526
"Desktop"="Default"

[Software\\Wine\\Explorer\\Desktops] 1287126530
"Default"="800x480"

Re: Wine 1.3.4 on arm
 

The desktop (read below) makes Wine on the N900 look superb, even as a proof-of-concept.

really cool :-)

Re: Wine 1.3.4 on arm
 

1. As the date of that post on dailymobile suggests, this is OLD news (half a year ago).
2. Reading the current thread is MUCH more cool... :rolleyes:

You still can't run normal windows apps on ARM. You can port if you have the source and then compile it for ARM.

Re: Wine 1.3.4 on arm
 

xuggs , i know it.

i can not install wine 0.138 dependencies error , packages missing

now i will try 0.134 . i think that it will run well.

Re: Wine 1.3.4 on arm

when i type wine and press enter in terminal it says: Permission Denied
what can i do to get permission for that?
please help me.

Re: Wine 1.3.4 on arm

Re: Wine 1.3.4 on arm
 

Cant we run the x86 version of wine using the qemu emulator?
I believe early versions of darwine used it to run x86 windows apps on a powerpc host (pretty damn slow I suppose).

Re: Wine 1.3.4 on arm
 

Forgot to tell that I finally got wine building on the package builder, so it's now available in extras-devel (and have been for a while already)
http://maemo.org/packages/view/wine/

I don't think I'll promote to testing as it's pretty much just a because-it's-there type of thing. Or what do you think?
But the most important thing, winemine is playable as you can see here

Re: Wine 1.3.4 on arm
 

Are there any open source application for Win32 that worth the try to build against Wine?. I can only think in eMule, but that should be very heavy for the device (and there is aMule already).
