Well, it seems that images by Souren Araya has the predictive input, so I want to say thanks for it.

Just got into r5.1.

maybe it's because the xt9 package contains proprietary stuffs from Nuance, and hence vgrade is not politically viable to redistribute them? :P

I successfuly installed Sailfish to my N9.
My question is: can I install somehow .rpm files when the device is booted to Sailfish? If yes, how? I sent a .rpm file from my Nokia 808 to the N9, but if I click on the received file, the install doesnt start...

From the terminal, change in to the directory where you've downloaded the rpm, e,g,:

Code:

cd ~/Downloads

Then use pkcon to install the package:

Code:

pkcon install-local ./downloaded-package.rpm

Pirating commercial software from a Jolla device is not the way to go.

Some are working on an AlienDalvik port. I think it's a bigger deal than a usable keyboard.

Source? And porting a VM is the "easy" part, there's more needed than just that.

Perhaps he meant Dalvik, there's the IcedTea/IcedRobot projects, but they stalled ages ago IIRC.
Last I checked not much was happening, & there was still "MUCH" to be done...
