I've applied for an invitation to upload to Extras; this will make things better for Easy Debian Final. You'll be able to install from the standard repositories!

Re: ANNOUNCE: Easy Debian For Everyone! OpenOffice, Firefox 3, Java, AbiWord, IceWM,
 

I uninstalled, rebooted, reinstalled, rebooted, and still get the exact same errors. If I click the Debian chroot icon the screen with the error messages vanishes, so I'm showing what happens when I run /sbin/debian, as the errors appear the same. As I said before, the problem seems to be that the mount commands don't work. One other user, maxzar100, earlier in this thread (on page 5 of this thread) gave an identical error log on so I am not the only one:

http://www.internettablettalk.com/fo...t=21629&page=5

So here is my error output:

Re: ANNOUNCE: Easy Debian For Everyone! OpenOffice, Firefox 3, Java, AbiWord, IceWM,
 

My first thought is: there's something wrong with your debian.img.ext2 file.

All of your "mount failed" errors are very likely due to the fact that your debian image file isn't mounting properly in the first place, which causes all the other stuff to go south.

First, you need to know where your debian.img.ext2 file is. It should be something like /media/mmc2/debian.img.ext2 or /media/mmc1/debian.img.ext2 so substitute the right one in the commands that follow.

1. Reboot. This makes sure you've got nothing chroot-related mounted.
2. Open a terminal. Type the following (substitute your correct path for /media/mmc2/debian.img.ext2)
3. Please post the results of those commands. Just so you know, the "ls /debian" command should produce lots of stuff. If it doesn't, then that might be your problem.

Re: ANNOUNCE: Easy Debian For Everyone! OpenOffice, Firefox 3, Java, AbiWord, IceWM,
 

After trying again, penguinbait's "OS to SD Deb"+KDE on my MMC2 card and then qole's Easy Debian on my MMC1 card, is working well. I don't know what caused the problems the first time, but I'm very happy that it's now working! Thanks for the responses and to those who have put in all of the work!

Re: ANNOUNCE: Easy Debian For Everyone! OpenOffice, Firefox 3, Java, AbiWord, IceWM,
 

Qole, I've tried before the very mount command you are now suggesting (except I did not bother to set noatime althought that is a good idea from a performance perspective with a slow flash drive). I've tried again just now just for the heck of it and I still get the same error messages. I've included the output of mount and df-h below also. (Yes, I do have a 1GB swapfile but trying everything with that disabled makes no difference.)

Just to repeat myself again, I went over your /sbin/debian script and tried executing the mount commands individual since they are what fails. Executing them does not work, sudo or no sudo.

The cryptic error output of the mount command is not very helpful. If I had time to install a version of mount with GDB breakpoints and source I just might try and debug the problem that way. I first installed Debian back in 1997 by the way back when it meant downloading about 8-10 1.44MB floppy images over a 33.6k modem. I used Debian with Windowmaker until 2003 when I got a Powerbook. Now I would once again like to use Debian---a system I know well---on this nice little N810. I have never in all my years had such a strange problem with the mount command. I used to boot mulitple operating systems on my old PC and I created and mounted all sorts of filesystems without issue. Anyway, the output:

Re: ANNOUNCE: Easy Debian For Everyone! OpenOffice, Firefox 3, Java, AbiWord, IceWM,
 

You have either a bad image file... or bad sectors on your SD card... would be my guess.

Re: ANNOUNCE: Easy Debian For Everyone! OpenOffice, Firefox 3, Java, AbiWord, IceWM,
 

tltmts:

I agree with fatalsaint. There's something seriously wrong with your image file, when a simple ls gives all kinds of errors.

Hey, I notice that you still have your .tar.bz2 file on your card. That's really suspicious. Did you use the installer to get it? If so, the file should have been deleted after it was untarred.

I would suggest you do the following:

This unmounts your SD card, checks for errors, mounts the card again, and then untars the image file again.

Watch for errors... If there are any errors untarring the image file, that's the problem.

The good thing about using the auto-installer is that it checks the file's md5sum and makes sure that your download is finished and correct.

Re: ANNOUNCE: Easy Debian For Everyone! OpenOffice, Firefox 3, Java, AbiWord, IceWM,
 

OK! Here we go!

I need a few brave souls to beta-test this for me.

• Uninstall any current version of Easy Debian (0.6 or earlier) you might have.
• Reboot.
• Install the Easy Debian 0.9-3 package new turbo-charged Easy Debian 0.9-11 package.
• Reboot.
• Use the Debian Image Installer to download and extract the Easy-Debian-Final image.
• Try starting LXDE and then run the virtual keyboard. Type a capital letter using the virtual keyboard.
• Report any problems or errors you might get.

Re: ANNOUNCE: Easy Debian For Everyone! OpenOffice, Firefox 3, Java, AbiWord, IceWM,

When Easy Debian is uninstalled using App Manager does thhat leave the old image in place?

Re: ANNOUNCE: Easy Debian For Everyone! OpenOffice, Firefox 3, Java, AbiWord, IceWM,
 

It installs ok... but I am unable to install the debian image. The debian image installer script puts out

Re: ANNOUNCE: Easy Debian For Everyone! OpenOffice, Firefox 3, Java, AbiWord, IceWM,
 

Hi qole,

So, I had downloaded the final image .tar when you released it a week or 2 ago onto my MMC2. (314 mb unzipped or whatever size...)

Your package installed fine, and it hung until I directed it to the MMC2 card, at which point it checked my final image .tar for integrity, and proceeded to extract it to its full 1.1 gb size. No problems there.

It congratulated me for a successful install, and I rebooted.

Upon reboot, none of the apps would launch via gui- no synaptic or gimp, no ice wm or browsers or open office.

So, I uninstalled.

Re: ANNOUNCE: Easy Debian For Everyone! OpenOffice, Firefox 3, Java, AbiWord, IceWM,
 

icewm? this version has no icewm! there's something weird with that story...

Anyway, I need beta testers here, so if you could reinstall and then open a terminal, enter 'sudo debian' (no quotes) and then paste the results here, I'd be much obliged.

Re: ANNOUNCE: Easy Debian For Everyone! OpenOffice, Firefox 3, Java, AbiWord, IceWM,
 

Yo, just saw this.

I'm in; I've actually been hanging loose not upgrading stuff on my chroot for a while, just waiting to try this out. I'm gonna get it started downloading tonight, and take it for a spin tomorrow.

Re: ANNOUNCE: Easy Debian For Everyone! OpenOffice, Firefox 3, Java, AbiWord, IceWM,
 

yeah, my bad....the (pretty glacier blue) icon remains on my personal menu from the previous install, leading nowhere, and I clicked it.

I'll post a terminal output tomorrow if nobody has already done so...

Re: ANNOUNCE: Easy Debian For Everyone! OpenOffice, Firefox 3, Java, AbiWord, IceWM,
 

i tryed and i failed. again.someone else commented the same, when i'm downloading the easy debian final image file the device tells me that it is downloading. well two devices tell me that actually. but a friend is downloading it via his laptop to the memory card. possibly that will work. will report back later

Re: ANNOUNCE: Easy Debian For Everyone! OpenOffice, Firefox 3, Java, AbiWord, IceWM,
 

Idem for me, I've put the image url into the browser and it's downloading.
Maybe my problem is because of some proxy I must use at work.

[EDIT] It's alright, after downloading the image file (with the browser), the installer detected it, verified it and is now uncompressing it.

Re: ANNOUNCE: Easy Debian For Everyone! OpenOffice, Firefox 3, Java, AbiWord, IceWM,
 

Qole,

On my N800 with Diablo, the Debian Image Install proc is failing to download the debian image file, ie., wget. The installer.sh proc sits chewing up 95% cpu time.

I downloaded the debian image file by hand and placed it in /media/mmc2... by doing so, Debian Install completed ok. So there seems to be a problem in installer.sh in fetching the image file from your server.

I am not sure I am happy with LXDE... besides being awfully slow, I keep getting "Application is not responding" dialogs with "Ok / Cancel" options. The previous IceWM seemed more solid.

Launching OpenOffice in this environment took forever... and I couldn't get matchbox-keyboard input t register at all... in contrast, I had no problem inputting chars with XVkbd.

If launched on the Hildon Desktop, the matchbox keyboard appears to work fine with OpenOffice. And while on this, what happened with the option to make OpenOffice run full-screen on the tablet's screen?

I wouldn't have minded if the new distribution included Abiword... yes, a Hildonized Abiword is now available -- but not yet fully robust. So having access to the Debian Abiword could be useful in some instances.

Re Xmodmaps, on my N800 if I have my own Xmodmap for an iGo Stowaway BT Keyboard do I just plug it into ~/.Xmodmap-keymap? Could you please explain how Xmodmaps are processed by your chroot scripts?

Edit: Is 'localepurge" no longer available... doing "apt-get install locale-purge" doesn't find the relevant package.

Edit: uninstalling the easy-chroot-deb package still seems to leave in place the /etc/osso-af-init/matchbox.defs hack.

Re: ANNOUNCE: Easy Debian For Everyone! OpenOffice, Firefox 3, Java, AbiWord, IceWM,
 

This isn't LXDE.. this has happened to me ever since going from a python script to the C binary for hostwin. Maemo thinks the application is just hung because it doesn't think/know that the Xephyr is being used.

It's really annoying... Sometimes I'll be typing in Debian and press enter right when that stupid popup shows up and it defaults to "OK" and closes my Debian window.

Re: ANNOUNCE: Easy Debian For Everyone! OpenOffice, Firefox 3, Java, AbiWord, IceWM,
 

Ok, so there seems to be a problem downloading the image tar. I'll get right on that.

- OpenOffice always takes forever to launch from an image file. Once launched, however, it should be fine.

- Please install the Powerlaunch package. This, in combination with Easy Debian, will let you make any application (including OpenOffice) fullscreen by pressing the power button then the fullscreen button. It will also toggle matchbox-keyboard when you press power button, then menu button.

- I just didn't have enough room for Abiword. Once you have done your localepurge, you probably will have enough room to squeeze it in.

- If "apt-get install" doesn't seem to be working, you will need to run "apt-get update" to get the latest set of packages. I stripped out the package lists to make the download size as small as possible.

- You want to follow the instructions from the first post regarding locales:
- You should be able to safely append your BT keyboard xmodmap to the .Xmodmap-keymap file.

- LXDE is a bit slower than IceWM, but it is a full desktop environment, as opposed to a bare-bones window manager. It uses tap-and-hold for right-click, and it has a great little file manager. Fatalsaint is right, that "not responding" thing has been coming up ever since I moved to the C program for opening the window, even with IceWM.

- I don't know why matchbox-keyboard is not working for you. I will investigate that, as it is very important.

Re: ANNOUNCE: Easy Debian For Everyone! OpenOffice, Firefox 3, Java, AbiWord, IceWM,
 

OK, small typo but SIGNIFICANT bug found in the image installer script.

Please wait for new version (0.9-4).

Re: ANNOUNCE: Easy Debian For Everyone! OpenOffice, Firefox 3, Java, AbiWord, IceWM,
 

New version posted. Please use the Easy Debian 0.9-4 package. Follow the instructions in my earlier post.

Thanks again for your patience, guys. Looks like this one should work.

Re: ANNOUNCE: Easy Debian For Everyone! OpenOffice, Firefox 3, Java, AbiWord, IceWM,
 

qole any chance you could put a link to your powerlaunch config file on here, I have messed mine up. Thanks in advance.

Re: ANNOUNCE: Easy Debian For Everyone! OpenOffice, Firefox 3, Java, AbiWord, IceWM,
 

Unzip the attached and drop it into /home/user/.powerlaunch/

But this is included in the .deb, you could just reinstall ...

Re: ANNOUNCE: Easy Debian For Everyone! OpenOffice, Firefox 3, Java, AbiWord, IceWM,
 

A discussion on IRC lead to the suggestion (by matan) that a kernel module based on DMloop or this patch might really improve performance in this project. However, I am not capable of making such things.

If someone with the skills to do such a thing could make me a turboloop.ko module, and then explain how to use this module (mount ... -o turboloop,noatime ?) that would be magnificent.

Very nifty addon, thanks!

More test results with easy debian 0.9-4.

External BT keyboard on my N800: successfully added my own iGo BT Kbd xmodmap (for indoeuropean langiage characters) to your .Xmodmap-keymap file... and indeed is loaded and remains active during a particular LXDE session.

For apps launched from the Hildon Desktop, the Xmodmap mapping needs to be activated by nad to be active for these apps.

If you recall, I had reported that the matchbox keyboard wasn't working for me... this was the matchbox keyboard that is toggled by the menu entry in Extras. I couldn't input characters on an LXDE session using this keyboard. The XVkbd that I had on my system and launched via Hildon menu however did the job fine.

The LXDE Accessories menu has debian versions of these keyboards as well. The matchbox keyboard works fine. The XVkbd keyboard that I prefer unfortunately doesn't work... it generates runs of characters at the slightest touch... hitting on the CAPs key puts the keyboard into a loop alternating between upper and lower case shifting... something is terribly bad with this keyboard in the environment that you have defined. Could you look into this?

Re: ANNOUNCE: Easy Debian For Everyone! OpenOffice, Firefox 3, Java, AbiWord, IceWM,
 

Hello Qole, thanks for the great app! I got it working under the latest diablo release (with update), but powerlaunch causes my alarm and display dimming/blankout to stop working. If I uninstall powerlaunch, everything works. Any solution?

Thank you!

Re: ANNOUNCE: Easy Debian For Everyone! OpenOffice, Firefox 3, Java, AbiWord, IceWM,
 

The solution is to talk to the powerlaunch developer. My alarms stopped working also, and I couldn't pin down the reason. Now I know why! (I don't know why your dimming doesn't work, mine works fine)

I'll post about this in the powerlaunch thread tomorrow...

Thanks to Matan's work, we now have an image file that runs almost as fast as a partition!! If you get a chance, head over to this thread and put a "thank you" on Matan's post. This is incredibly useful for anyone wanting to use an image file!

If you are already beta-testing the 0.9 series, just install the Easy Debian 0.9-7 package to enjoy your new speed boost.

If you are updating from version 0.6 or below, please follow the instructions in my earlier post.

Re: ANNOUNCE: Easy Debian For Everyone! OpenOffice, Firefox 3, Java, AbiWord, IceWM,
 

You need to hit the power button while in OpenOffice, then the menu will come up, asking if you want to lock the touch screen and keys, soft poweroff, etc..., then you hit the fullscreen key. There should be a message on the top right, saying, "fullscreen toggle", and OpenOffice (or whatever app you are in) should go fullscreen.

If everything happens except the fullscreen, open a terminal and type:
and then post the results here.

Re: ANNOUNCE: Easy Debian For Everyone! OpenOffice, Firefox 3, Java, AbiWord, IceWM,
 

I don't use alarms so I had not noticed... however, the dimming works fine on my N800... I am using the default configure file that powerlaunch installs.

Edit: ...dimming works fine, but the Display option of "lock screen and keys" upon switching the display does not work if powerlaunch is installed.

Re: ANNOUNCE: Easy Debian For Everyone! OpenOffice, Firefox 3, Java, AbiWord, IceWM,
 

To Qole:

I've been testing your new .94 Easy-Debian (I use Easy-Debian off a ext2 partition, so I guess I don't need the Turbo-Charged version?) over the last few days and the chroot scripts work great. Granted, I didn't use the Debian-image-installer, so can't report on that.

I really like LXDE, too. Very light and still has most of the features I use. Way better than IceWM :)

Nothing seems to be broken, the keyboards (well, at least xvkbd -- that's the one I use), Sound, Flash video in the web browser, etc. all works as expected.

The only issues I've had are with Epiphany (Webkit & Gecko), Midori, and non-Root RoXTerm. The easy one is RoXTerm, it gives some error about "Can't connect to /tmp/dbus-LongStringOfTextHere", then says "Failed To Install dbuse message filter", but it seems to work fine. Strangly, the Root-Terminal (which is also RoXTerm, right?) gives no such errors.

Not a big deal, just thought I'd mention it.

After installing Epiphany, opening it errors with "Epiphany could not connect to the session message bus. Your default settings will not be available", and although Epiphany still works, any changes made to it aren't saved (Bookmarks, Settings, etc.).

Midori is the strangest. Opening it gives me this:

There is no instance of Midori running. These dbus problems are killing me :rolleyes:

Admitedly, I haven't really looked into fixing these issues. It may be something simple. Then again, this is after a clean install of debian, so I'd think everyone would get these problems under the same circumstances.

Hope this helps!

Re: ANNOUNCE: Easy Debian For Everyone! OpenOffice, Firefox 3, Java, AbiWord, IceWM,
 

Hi Brent,

Just want to point out that none of the programs you've mentioned (except RoxTerm) come default with Easy Debian. So the warranty doesn't apply to them ;) :D

However, I'm curious about the dbus issues you're having, since I thought I'd fixed the dbus problems in the latest scripts. The strange thing is that I'm running Midori with absolutely no problems with these scripts. Midori has to be the fastest stable browser on the tablet at the moment. It has some issues with Java, so I have to uninstall the Java plugin, but that's not a big deal since Java's so slow on the tablet anyway. After that it runs like a greased pig with a butcher in pursuit. :p :)

When programs in the chroot complain about stuff not connecting, especially when running as non-root, it usually is because of permissions. Does your Debian install have the correct "user" account, and have you checked the permissions in the /home/user/.config directory (and any other config files)? You might need to run this as root:
