+After toolchain installation, install (with **''opkg-target''**) some OpenMoko **''-dev''** packages required to compile Navit. Depending upon permissions of ''/usr/local/openmoko/'' directory, you may need root privileges:
 <code>
 . /usr/local/openmoko/arm/environment-setup
+opkg-target list
 opkg-target install gpsd-dev
 opkg-target install gtk+-dev

+Now we check-out Navit sources from the SVN repository and we make an archive just in case we need the pristine sources in the future:
 <code>
 svn co https://navit.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/navit/trunk/navit
 tar zcvf navit-svn-2670.tar.gz navit
-om-conf navit
 </code>
+Instead of running the traditional **''./autogen.sh; ./configure''** in the navit source tree, we must run the **''om-conf''** script, which will modify the ''automake'', ''autoconf'' and ''make'' files to run into the OpenMoko toolchain.
+Because Navit on the OpenMoko FreeRunner requires some configure options, we will pass them to the script. Run ''om-conf'' from the directory containing the source tree (not inside it):
+<code>
+om-conf --host=arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi --enable-avoid-unaligned --enable-avoid-float \
+    --enable-cache-size=20971520 --with-saxon=saxon-xslt --with-xslts=openmoko \
+    --enable-svg2png-scaling=16,32,48,96 --enable-svg2png-scaling-flag=32,48 \
+    navit
+</code>
+In the example above we used some **''./configure''** options, among them:
+**''--with-saxon=saxon-xslt''**\\ This is because we have the Debian libsaxon-java package, where the executable is called ''saxon-xslt'' instead of ''saxon''.
+**''--enable-svg2png-scaling=16,32,48,96''**\\ For each .svg icon, render a png image of the specified size. Images will be named **''icon_XX_YY.png''**.
+**''--enable-svg2png-scaling-flag=32,48''**\\ Same as above, but only for country flag icons.
 It's time to cross-compile:

+If you need more control files (e.g. a ''postinst'' or alike) you have to tweak with the ''om-make-ipkg'' script.  Here it is the script I use, it looks for the control files into an **''opkg''** directory, so you have to pass just the directory name containing the source tree.

+Control files and other files are arranged into the ''opkg'' directory as needed, here it is an example:
+<code>
+opkg/CONTROL/postinst
+opkg/CONTROL/control
+opkg/etc/rcS.d/S96overcommit_memory.sh
