Hi all,

I am a happy new owner of N800 - I just started installing
applications and hacking the device.
I plan to use my N800 (among other things) as a guitar
accessory, to replace metronome and tuner, to
record myself playing, to play video clips with pieces
I want to learn, and to play midi files (of pieces I want to learn).

So far I installed metronome (qtick from garage), and it works fine.
I had more trouble with tuner, but finally I found one at
http://n770galaxy.blogspot.com/ . It was tricky to install,
as it needs gstreamer0.10-plugins-base-extra package,
which apparently conflicts with camera pakacke.
The following hack solved the problem for me:
First install tuner_0.0.2_armel.deb from
http://n770galaxy.blogspot.com , then as root do:
Code:
apt-get remove camera
apt-get install gstreamer0.10-plugins-base-extra
cp /usr/lib/gstreamer-0.10/libgstaudiotestsrc.so .
apt-get remove gstreamer0.10-plugins-base-extra
apt-get install camera
cp libgstaudiotestsrc.so  /usr/lib/gstreamer-0.10/libgstaudiotestsrc.so
So right now I have working tuner, metronome, and I can record
sound with maemo-recorder. Not bad!

The only thing missing is midi player. Does anyone know of
any midi player for maemo (timidity port perhaps)?

Any other interesing applications which would be interest to
a guitar player?
