Cannot continue with Xephyr started - maemo.org

Hi guys,
I am a new Ubuntu user. For some reasons, I need to use the Maemo simulator. The SDK had been installed manually for weeks ago, but the simulator works successfully only once.
Here are some information, hopes it useful.
Pasu@Lan:~$ Xephyr :2 -host-cursor -screen 800x480x16 -dpi 96 -ac -extension Composite
Could not init font path element /usr/share/fonts/X11/cyrillic, removing from list!
unrecognised device identifier!
(EE) config/hal: NewInputDeviceRequest failed
unrecognised device identifier!
(EE) config/hal: NewInputDeviceRequest failed
unrecognised device identifier!
(EE) config/hal: NewInputDeviceRequest failed
unrecognised device identifier!
(EE) config/hal: NewInputDeviceRequest failed

After that the xephyr started, the problem is that I do not how to continue. It didn’t prompt me to continue to enter the command (Pasu@Lan:~ is not displayed).
Xephyr seems to not work or have some problem, is it?
The problem has puzzled me for weeks. I have visited wiki and webs, but it stills a problem to me. I really need you for your help, thanks~~

Add '&' to the command if you want to be able to use the same terminal to enter commands, etc. The & causes application to be run in the background and you can run other things in the same terminal.

Xephyr :2 -host-cursor -screen 800x480x16 -dpi 96 -ac -extension Composite &

to close write "fg" and press ctrl+c

Edit: or did you mean: How to start the Maemo application framework into xephyr?

I could be way off, but it sounds to me like you started Xephyr and sat back waiting for magic.

There's more to starting the SDK than that. For starters, try having a closer look at the SDK installation document.

tl;dr, you still need scratchbox installed, then to log in to scratchbox, have the nokia binaries installed, etc. etc.

Try using this guide:

after running Xephyr, open a new Terminal, run scratchbox and then these commands:

Code:

sb-conf sel FREMANTLE_X86

export DISPLAY=:2

af-sb-init.sh start

To stop it:

Code:

af-sb-init.sh stop
