it works just excellent except that cpu mem aplet always shows that the cpu is running at full power even when I reboot the phone and everything is loaded properly the cpu still works. Htop shows thatther are two processes running and usually ther was just one.
The one which uses the cp most is: usr/lib/tracker/tracker-indexer
The second one is: usr/lib/traker/tracker-extract

On the other hand, go ahead and try experimenting with any apps that interest you. Just avoid upgrading OpenOffice.org. (Don't do a full apt-get upgrade.) If you mess up don't worry, there is a new image available. So, you were probably going to reinstall it any way.
Correction:
There is a new version of Easy Debian available in extras-devel (may be a bit rough still). A new image is about to be available.

Fact is if you have an old version of Qole's scripts, you'll get everything mounted in /debian instead that /.debian - and tracker will take ages to index your debian rootfs.

there seems to be Open Office shortcut on my maemo desktop, that wasn't there before update. And now my Finnish keyboard layout works.

What is the process of updating? If I remove everything from app manager, how much will be left behind? Will it delete the image file?

I installed cups to have network printing capabilities for the applications under easy-debian, which works like a charm. Anytime I chroot to Debian, I have my network printers available, but when I reboot the N900 itself, I need to
once, but then it will be available for all easy-debian sessions, until I turn off the N900 again.
Anyone knows why? And how to make the startup of cups automatic?
UPDATE: Thanks to qole, I now know how to solve also this issue. See http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php...369#post490369

open the xterm and give the command "ls /"
tell if among the directories there is one called "/debian"
