    Lol! Good to hear that you figured it out!

    #end@

    Okay, everybody, I'm thinking about changing the #includes to absolute file paths so that gcc can find the .h files. I believe that changing it to something like this:

    #include "/var/mobile/Applications/GoodReader/Documents/powder-38.0-src/stdio.h"

    should fix the problem. Opinions?

    i would just brute force every possible solution you could think of until it works.
    that's how i got my laptop to boot ubuntu.

    Lol! Ubuntu was that difficult to make work?

    #end@

    Ok, I'm currently in the process of making all #includes in all PT files and dependencies absolute file paths instead of relative. Hopefully this will work...

    "Lol! Ubuntu was that difficult to make work?"
    no, linux in general. the hardware in my laptop is designed to only allow windows.
    i have to boot with commanline: acpi=off noapic pnpbios=off
    so no power controll, sleep mode, special keys(volume up down etc).

    "Ok, I'm currently in the process of making all #includes in all PT files and dependencies absolute file paths instead of relative. Hopefully this will work..."

    i don't think that's how the compiler works...

    From what I've read, I believe gcc will follow absolute filepaths in #includes, I'm just not sure what the right syntax to include absolute paths is. I think it's '#include "filepath"' but there's a small chance that it's actually '#include <filepath>'. If anyone here knows, I would be very greatful for the information. In the meantime, I'm nearly finished with implementing option one.

    I'm closer! It's now finding such files as stdio.h, stdarg.h, and others! I appear to have missed some #includes and there appear to be a couple of discrepencys that need fixed, but it's now finding the .h files via the absolute file paths!

    i think that there should also be a PT for Zune HD just because i have one (and so do many others) and it would just be nice because though its not as good as the ipod (app wise) its still a nice little gadget to have, so... yeah. just throwin that out there
