since four months goes away, is there any further steps on this? Is it
possible tailor the existed  spice client c++ code and exposed these as JNI
to java code, the surface and mouse drawing by java(provided by android
api)?. We tried to compile tinyx and ALSA on my phone, but there is no shm
and no tty device, how could we go on? please give some advice so make us on
the right road. any suggestions appreciated.
