Hi catharsis.

I cannot speak for Windows (no experience setting up the SDK there), but for Linux, it is fairly easy, if you're not afraid of using a shell (check out https://wiki.mobileread.com/wiki/Boox...re_development ).

You'll save yourself trouble compiling for x86 by developing in a 32bit environment (a couple of packages cast pointers to integer :P ).

VM: E.g., download the Nokia Maemo Development VM (Ubuntu Linux) as a basis, and use it in VirtualBox. (I do not actually use the scratchbox environment for the M92, though) In Ubuntu, you can install missing (x86) packages with either the synaptics package manager, or with aptitude, or with apt-get.

Cheers.
