Hildon Desktop for desktop Linux? Anybody tried yet?

Hello,

Has anybody tried to compile Hildon Desktop for their Linux
(e.g.
Ubuntu?) yet?
Lucas and I have blogged about it sometime ago. Any
experiences/comments/questions/whatever to share?

The instructions written by Lucas can be found through my
lauchpad
specification that I started
when Lucas got some progress on his port:
https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+
spec/hildon-desktop-for-ubuntu

I think the Hildon Desktop would be pretty good for use as
user
interface for UMPCs,
tablet PCs etc. running some Linux distro (if operated using
the touch
screen). Added benefit would
be that the applets/plugins made for Nokia devices would
also run on the
PC and also the applets
made for the PC would run on the Nokia device (python
applets would run
out of the box without recompilation even).

Best Regards,
Karoliina

I am getting some hardware to play with to do this very type
of thing in a 
month or so. Not UMPC, but an Arm 9 and a touchscreen. I
hope to be able to 
run hildon on it because I think it will be ideal for my
needs (ubiquitious 
home computing)

I'll look at this. It might be a bit before I really get on
this but I'l feed 
back my details as they come.

Hello,

i played with that a couple days ago. The first problem was
fixed by a
hint from Lucas. The last problem was ( was and is, because
i had no
time to examine the error ) a error with the jhbuild.

------------------------------------------------------------
-------

The installation from the repository seems to be done but
there is no
jhbuild command found.

I think i will try it again this week so i will report more
experiences
in the next few days.
