This thread is top!!!

Thanks for everyones input... I'm not a coder and can only do VBA so this is a BIG step up!

When I enter "python helloworld.py" it shows the app but very basic, with a plain background and terminal displays the message:

"Maemo applications must be run with the run-standalone.sh script!"
"QGtkstyle was unable to detect the current GTK+ theme."

Any ideas?

These are not really errors. The first line just says that in order to be able to correctly cooperate with some system services you should be starting the app with 'run-standalone.sh python helloworld.py'. As for the non-maemo styled background - I had that issue when starting apps as root, always start them as 'user' to avoid rights/paths issues that can result in all sorts of funkiness.

Did you install the openssh-server on the N900?

Also.. more details. Just "SSH fails, network error" doesn't tell us much. Are you trying to copy a QT4 app you wrote from your computer to the N900? From the N900 to the Computer? Are both on the same network? Is your N900 on the 3G/Data network?

... details.
