First of all: Thank you, Skry, for all the work you've put in this!

I've always wanted to try somethin non-debianish, and well, i'm quiet impressed how easy it was to put arch on the n900.
It's alot easier and faster than my last try with ubuntu.

2nd (mostly addressed to caveman):
how did you get e17 running?
after i finish the quickstart wizard it segfaults and upon restart it complains about missing modules.
I'm currently trying to build it from AUR maybe this fixes the issues.
