Rockbox Development > New Ports
Nokia N800 Internet Tablet (linux)
jgombos:
Are there any efforts going on to port rockbox to linux? Seems like the most basic platform, but the closest thing I could find to folks running it on linux was this:

Is there a linux port somewhere out in the wild? If so, getting rockbox on the Nokia N800 may be as trivial as compiling. Does that sound right?

If the Nokia has SDL, you can just compile one of the simulators for it and run that. How usable it is depends on how well the Nokia handles the keyboard for controls.

I do believe that SDL does exist for the Maemo platform (which is what the Nokia tablets are all based on); it's not Rockbox related but Quake was ported to Maemo using SDL libraries:

So that means that Rockbox as an app on the Nokia tablets is possible.
