Hi All!
Just a quick post on a very annoying issue: i wanted to install R on easy ubuntu, but during the installation something went wrong; an unexpected restart occured. Normally it is not a problem, my maemo system wasn't harm of course, but ubuntu lxde is now messed up, it cannot load LXDE, stops atthe window that says:"Ctrl back to return to dashboard". Luckily ubuntu chroot is working. I tried to figure out what the problem was, but I didn't succeded. Segmentation fault everywhere, broken files in /usr/bin, cannot start any of the applications; only midnight commander is working. So now i backup my config files (for conky, nautilus, midori, etc.) and start the whole thing again from the beginning. Frankly, now i would like to use easy debian, because it has the applications that easy ubuntu doesn't (R Commander for example).
Cheers,
jm
EDIT: some other things that i noticed:
- when i tried to launch debian lxde (that was on my phone's MyDocs folder as well), it also refused to start.
- After rebooting the phone the debian lxde located in MyDocs started normally.
- After rebooting the phone ubuntu lxde wont start.
- After launching ubuntu lxde debian lxde won't start either -> it needs rebooting the phone.
- After copying debian lxde it starts normally from other places (mmc1).
- After copying ubuntu lxde it doesn' start. But the original, freshly downloaded easy ubuntu image is working fine.
- Trying to figure out what the problem was, i found that some lib files are corrupted, and NFS handle happend. I can't do a thing to solve it; i think something happened with /dev/loop0.
- I don't know if i did it well, but tried to fsck the not-working ubuntu image (/dev/loop0). Fsck said that it is corrupted, something is wrong woth the block size. So that is it.

After flashing my device i decided to have another try on "easy-things" (:
There is something with easy debian; every second run the menu disappears and i can log out only if i run the command from /usr/bin... I didn't want to mess with this, so i gave easy ubuntu another try.
I made a separate ext3 partition on my sd card and converted and copied ubuntu image to that.
That is why i refreshed my earlier writing a bit. It seems that maybe the battery drained totally during the installation of R; it is working now, there is nothing wrong with it.

Thanks justmemory for the big work you've done.
Unfortunately the ubuntu-n900.deb does not work as UbuntuOne has been discontinued. Does someone still own this file? If not, is there a way to install and access it without it (the deb file) ?
Thanks in advance!!!

you should download the file named: ubuntu-m5-v1.img.ext2.lzma, then extract it where the previous image was. this should fix your problem.
