I have first tried the Debian-side fix, seen that it worked, and then switched to 0.9.51. However, there I've encountered some occasional weird behavior:

When I first opened LXDE, to my surprise I had an English keyboard again, despite the "setkbd de" in /etc/xdg/lxsession/LXDE/autostart. Closing chroot and starting LXDE again, I then had a German keyboard, but some of my additional remappings of the keyboard were missing out (I do those further remappings with xmodmap launched from /etc/xdg/lxsession/LXDE/autostart). Doing it a third time, my keyboard was finally as it used to be. I've never had such unpredictabilities with my keyboard hacks before - albeit some things never worked.

On one of the launches of LXDE I even had missing keyboard focus from the very beginning! Though once started successfully, I don't lose it, neither when going to task manager nor through the power button.

And just now I had LXDE not starting at all after clicking the OK button. After the little window closed, I was left with the screen telling about Ctrl+Backspace, from which I could not even get out to the task manager without resorting to the camera trick.

Could it be that there is some race condition complicating the combination of Maemo-side and Debian-side scripts?

I'm testing it some more, but perhaps I should also go back and try out more extensively the Debian-side fix.

EDIT: After a reboot of the phone, I once again could not start LXDE. It's hanging at the "Ctrl+Back" screen. These are the processes that I see with top:

EDIT2: After finalling killing it, and doing a close chroot, Xorg is still running, with CPU at 600MHz, so I have to reboot to get rid of that.
