EDIT: i havent gotten mine to be usable yet. i can send keys, but only a few at a time, and no arrows which is the single most important feature for me. ive been trying to test the keyboard on a big computer, but its been difficult, so i suspect it is my keyboard giving me trouble {spider ultra mini btkb}

Please, do it, my main reason to use Harmattan open mode would be to run (Easy) Debian.

Even using the N9 with a Bluetooth keyboard (or BlueMaemo running on Nokia N810/N900 to behave like one).
TO QOLE:

Totally agree i install the open kernel thinking on easy debian. I dont mind if it is not easy. but running linux distros in a chroot or native is my main reason to buy a N9.

For me EASY DEBIAN is the best application ever on the N900 and i am even willing to pay for it, if you port it for the N9.

One option is just install a debian chroot using debootstrap.
I did that way, all debian apps are running fine (just remember to "mount -o bind" /dev, /dev/pts and /proc).

do you happen to know of any way to run programs as user instead of root?

He's apparently had it working in open-mode for some time now:

But so far he has not clarified how exactly....

Wow, Ok, not only is there BT keyboard support available for the N9, but elemental got it published in the Ovi store, here!

I'll try to package up a .deb file for the qchroot scripts in the next while. You'll have to have a hardware keyboard and open mode, so I'll have to think of a new name for this. Probably just "qchroot" or something.

Impresive how well works this application, it paired the N9 like just in one second with my BT keywoad and works perfect out of the box. I suppose i am used to the the N900 where i tried for days, to paired with it and nothing.

- Thanks a lot for the qchroot scripts, it will be very much appreciate for all N9 users in the world for sure.
