GTK+ The release 2.8 of GPE is complete and available for download. The new release comes with a large number of bugfixes and improvements such as an improved calendar, many fixed import/export and synchronisation issues as well as support for Maemo in additional components like Starling (the new audio player) and gpe-filemanager.

Thank you for your answer sukru.

So the situation is:
GNOME <-> GTK
GPE <-> GTK

Is it possible to hack on GPE using a PC, ie without having a PDA?
(I'm not saying it makes sense, just curious to know whether one like me could start contributing coding and testing just his Linux box)

For now there are few vmware images ready to run. Find it on the page.

I think GPE 2.8 will soon be avalible as vmware image. If its not already ;)

of course, it's easy

emerge matchbox
you must install matchbox-nest by hand, Xoo or Xnest

download latest gpe svn branch, url on www.gpe.linuxtogo.org

build something from gpe tree
export ld path and pkgconfig

matchbox-nest&
export DISPLAY=:1
and run gpe-*
enjoy ;)
