Perhaps you should try a 'dry run' first. Run guake, yakuake whatever from the debian chroot MANAGED by hildon.

1. Install drop down terminal of your choice in debian chroot.
2. run 'debbie <name of your terminal>'
3. Profit!

I say profit but what I mean is try it out first. Maybe you will find a dropdown terminal utter horrendous on the n900 tiny screen+keyboard. It might save you a lot of wasted effort.

I could'nt live without tilda on my desktop.

Well, in my opinion i have to say that osso-xterm is very far from be a good terminal.

Have another option, also resident, immediately available, with some gui optimization would be really great.

Because, you know, our pouches still contain this device for one simple reason:
Open that little black window and read:
root@N900#

ok... i think i have found the point concerning the UPPERCASE problem.
Auto-capitalization breaks the libvte behavior.
Disabling auto-capitalization in the maemo keyboard settings solves the issue and makes tilda and midori work perfectly.
