Perhaps you shouldn't bother trying to do that stuff in IceWM; after all, just press the "Home" key (with the house on it) to get back to OS2008. If you run the "Debian chroot" from your menu, it drops you to a root prompt in Debian. Also, the "Synaptic Package Manager" item from the menu gives you root access without a password. EDIT: Bun, you changed your post after I replied! Cheater! ;) EDIT2: I just checked, there's a passwordless root terminal in IceWM under Programs / Applications / Terminal Emulators called "X-Terminal as root (GKsu)" |

Great job Qole! Is there any additional functionality packed in the deb as far as the chroot'ing and whatnot that goes beyond the initial one (besides the automatic image download bit - e.g. if I wanted to keep utilizing my existing image, would there be benefits to grabbing the updated easy-deb-chroot deb?)

Major changes since first chroot package:
The new script looks for the first image file that starts with "debian" so you could, in theory, keep both image files, and just rename the one you don't want to use to "xdebian.img.ext2" as required to use one or the other (rebooting between uses). IceWM on top of OS2008 is cool: IceWM running AbiWord and xvkbd, with OS2008 menu (invoked by pressing Home key) http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3162/...517973ff_o.png |

Or if I go to synaptic, they offer 2.7 rox-filer instead of 2.5. Would 2.7 make the tablet explode? bun |

Rox-filer is very light and configurable, but remember it needs the right mouse key, so in order to have it install keylaunch. I don't know if it's already in Qole last easy debian package because I'm still using my old rootfs from Johnx. |

Yes, rox-filer 2.7 installed successfully.
Open Synaptic Package Manager, wait for 20 seconds or so, manually locate rox-filer 2.7-1 and marked for install, and follow installation, takes some 2 minutes. Get out, boot into IceWM, debian>Programs>Applications>System>ROX Filer. Error message, '/home/user/.icons' not found, other than that, it seems working. Have not learned how to use it yet, :( , it is a 10 page user manual. bun |

On the synaptic, there is also kde desktop environment. Can I install it? Would that made my house on fire?
