Here's what i did :

I changed the permission for both scripts in /home/user
and in /media/mmc1

using both +x and 777

Then i ran

cd /home/user/ubuntu
./chrootubuntu

I got ls: /home/user/MyDocs/ubuntu*.img*:no such file or directory
/sbin/qchroot:shift: line 22: can't shift that many

and

cd /media/mmc1/ubuntu
./chrootubuntu

This gave me permission denied error...

Am i not supposed to extract the images from the computer first and leave it as .img ?

Hey Juan,

They keybinding settings for Xephyr showed up, along with an OK button. Clicking it launched Ubuntu but no further settings manager or anything.

Keyboard, as expected, behaved the same as before. That is, letter keys work but interpunction, shift and other function keys, and with that, the number keys, donīt work.

First parameter must be an image file or partition
Hmm. Out of curiosity I tried

cd /home/user/ubuntu
./chrootubuntu /home/user/MyDocs/specific-image-name-because-i-have-more-than-one.

As expected I get the message chroot is not supposed to handle that file.

Code:
Everything set up, running chroot...
chroot: cannot execute /home/user/MyDocs/ubuntu-m5-v1.img.ext2: Permission denied
~/ubuntu $
Why donīt you simply edit the ubuntu file and change the image location there?

Edit: confirmed

I just moved the ubuntu image with the standard file manager to my sd card, changed the location in /ubuntu/chrootubuntu and it works without problems at first sight.

I just moved the ubuntu image with the standard file manager to my sd card, changed the location in /ubuntu/chrootubuntu and it works without problems at first sight.
I followed everything in page 1 until :

./ubuntu

then i got this error

Code:
./ubuntu: line 9: /media/mmc1/ubuntu/chrootubuntu: Permission denied
./ubuntu: line 12: /media/mmc1/ubuntu/chrootubuntu: Permission denied
I tried to
chmod +x /media/mmc1/ubuntu/chrootubuntu and
chmod 777 /media/mmc1/ubuntu/chrootubuntu

But i still got the same error, i suspect this has something to do with the modificated "chrootubuntu" file

So here's mine :

Code:
if [ "x$UBUNTUIMG" = "x" ] ; then
  UBUNTUIMG="`ls -1 /media/mmc1/ubuntu*.img* | head -1`"
fi

if [ "x$UBUNTUCHROOT" = "x" ] ; then
  UBUNTUCHROOT="/.ubuntu"
fi

if [ ! -d "$UBUNTUCHROOT" ] ; then
  sudo mkdir $UBUNTUCHROOT
fi

sudo qchroot $UBUNTUIMG $UBUNTUCHROOT "$@"
Did i make a mistake somewhere?

Re: [TUTORIAL-WIP] Ubuntu, Fedora and Archlinux using Easy-Debian
 
I suspect that error has to do with a moved ubuntu homefolder. Where have you put it? And if you put it somewhere else, make sure to

code in a new terminal

cd /ubuntu
nano ubuntu
and make sure that the line that says "scriptdir=" is pointing to the right location.

Hm.. I put the 3 folders into both

/home/user and
/media/mmc1

and the files are the modificated ones.

the scriptdir is "/media/mmc1/ubuntu"
Is that correct if the images are in mmc?

and even after i tried to sudo chmod +x the files in that folder, i'm still getting the same error...

Re: [TUTORIAL-WIP] Ubuntu, Fedora and Archlinux using Easy-Debian
 
It doesnīt matter how many of these copies you have flying around. What is important is that they can be found. To make it easier on yourself I would suggest to keep only the one you actually plan on using ;) It will prevent you from confusingly editing wrong scripts and / or pointing to the wrong locations.

As I said before, I am not sure, but I think your problem lies not in the chroot file but rather in the ubuntu file. So try that and report whether it worked or not.

You forgot to add hildon folder in
Code:

Provided everything is located in the default positions so, the qole/juan scripts actually work. Once you start fiddling around, the scripts need updating.

You get "operation not permitted" as a result of trying to chmod the file?

So, the code, in a fresh terminal:

sudo /usr/bin/closeubuntu

Gives you this?

You are 100% positive you put sudo before the command?

Could you be more precise? You get this in the command line? Well. First try and check the command I gave before. Than check back here if it still doesn't work.

if you run from mmc depending of your class of memory sd, ubuntu its going to run more slowly so at least you have no space at all I sugest you to keep the files on the internal memory of the device and follows the guide otherwise you have to change the scripts

Re: [TUTORIAL-WIP] Ubuntu, Fedora and Archlinux using Easy-Debian
 
Hi JuanDP. I reinstalled ubuntu but it seems that nothing has changed! All my settings inside ubuntu did not change. And Also, To make ubuntu have it's own folder, when i "sudo nano chroot ubuntu" it opens a blank file. There is no way to change :
Code:
sudo qchroot $UBUNTUIMG $UBUNTUCHROOT "$@"
and when i exit (without saving) I have the ./ubuntu file opened. So where do I change
Code:
sudo qchroot $UBUNTUIMG $UBUNTUCHROOT "$@"
to
Code:
sudo uchroot $UBUNTUIMG $UBUNTUCHROOT "$@"
????

Can you please explain it step by step??

Am I obliged to do it when ubuntu is mounted or unmounted?? thanksssss!! :D

ok you dont have to do this with ubuntu mounted

I think that the problem its that you are typing
Code:
sudo nano chroot ubuntu
when it actually is
Code:
sudo nano chrootubuntu
Once you do this mount ubuntu:

Code:
cd ubuntu
./chrootubuntu
mkdir /home/user/ubuntu
exit
open a new xterminal

Code:
sudo cp ubuntu/startubuntu /.ubuntu/home/user/ubuntu
cd ubuntu
./chrootubuntu
chmod +x /home/user/ubuntu/startubuntu
exit
cd ubuntu
./ubuntu
please comment the result

Nevermind, got it to work.. Just one small thing..
When i run this script to make the icon appears :

Code:
[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Name=Ubuntu LXDE
GenericName=Ubuntu LXDE
Exec=/usr/bin/ubuntu-lxde
Icon=/home/user/MyDocs/ubuntu.png
X-Osso-Type=application/x-executable
X-HildonDesk-ShowInToolbar=true
Type=Application
StartupNotify=true
The device freezes and i have to restart.
I already put the ubuntu.png file on /home/user/MyDocs/ubuntu.png...

When i check the app list, the icon won't show up..
only blue square with Ubuntu LXDE on it (but it works though)

Thanks, i tried it and i think it's pretty fast.. at least faster than easy debian..
Just got a question, what is the advantage compared to easy debian?
SInce they both have same home screen?
Is it just speed?
Is there anyway to change the home screen to more ubuntu-like?

Let me get this straight: You have two problems?

1. The device freezes and needs rebooting?

2. You custom icon does not show up? Concerning this, have you tried putting the icon in the normal location?

I don't know realy, i rebooted my device and left it for a while..
Then i tried it again and it works. Probably i was just missing a command like you said...

Yes. Umm.. where's the normal location? I can't find it..

A bit off topic but i can't upload the ubuntu.png file to tinypic..Kinda strange because the other images work..
I keep getting "Upload Failed! Uploaded 0 of 1. An error occurred while uploading the file" Any idea why?

Depending on your theme, it should be found at

Concerning the upload. Have you opened the image on the n900 itself to verify the image is not corrupt or something?

I believe that xephwm5 could help to get keyboard focus on arch and fedora, i'm trying to port it in arch but I got so many troubles with lack of lib in arch so i'm trying to use plubox insted of archmobile.

Meanwhile I think that its important to put xephm5 into the scripts for ubuntu, I've tested and works fine for me the problem its that I got ubuntu with his own custom folder so I don't know if ot will work with shared folder, so I ask you if you could test this please, I will provide instructions

Re: [TUTORIAL-WIP] Ubuntu, Fedora and Archlinux using Easy-Debian
 
To get keyboard focus on fedora or maybe on arch, copy set-focus on /usr/bin and qobi-wmhint-fix on sbin, dont forget to chmod that 2 files... Im just noticed that and it works for me..

Testing alternatives is always good, but I would like to spend some more time to see if we can solve the problem in ArchMob first. What dependency problem were you running into?

Also, I did read up a bit on the set-focus problem, but I stopped looking further after you posted that you would upload a new image. Perhaps you could give me some pointers?

I am not exactly sure that I understand what you mean by "shared folder" and thus what you want me to test. But after you explain, of course I am willing to test :D

Hmm you're right.. Juandp, i think the ubuntu image is corrupted..

Do you mind uploading a new one?

But the strange thing is that it's only corrupted in N900, i can open it w/o problem in my PC... But i still can't upload it though..

I was talking about the PNG image, not the O image of Ubuntu.
The reason for asking is that it might have a corrupt header and is thus being rejected. That would explain why the image is not working. But the easiest method is to first check the image on the n900 itself. Does it show in your image viewer?

The chance that the Ubuntu image is corrput and that everything else works except for the icon image is minimal, I'd say. Also, the chance that if you have a corrupt Ubuntu image, it's gotten corrupted in the download and not the upload. In other words: The original should be ok. Just download the Ubuntu image again if you think that is the culprit. (Which I doubt)

I tried on fedora and works flawless thanks

@anthonie, sorry for not make me understand lol

maybe if I provied instructions you could understand better

so what I want to do basically its to insted of using the script startubuntu to start the desktop environment, use xephwm5

so please make a new script
Code:
cd ubuntu
touch ubuntuxephwm5
chmod +x ubuntuxephwm5
nano ubuntuxephwm5
now copy this

Code:
#!/bin/sh

xephwm5
ok so now edit the ubuntu script

Code:
nano ubuntu
at the end change this

Code:
$SCRIPTDIR/chrootubuntu $SCRIPTDIR/startubuntu
to this

Code:
$SCRIPTDIR/chrootubuntu $SCRIPTDIR/ubuntuxephwm5
now chroot into ubuntu and change this parameters
Code:
nano /usr/bin/xephwm5
Code:
#!/bin/sh

Yes, i was talking about the png image too...
It shows up just fine on the N900 image viewer.. I've tried downloading it again 3 times from PC but it still won't work on tinypic..

Anyway, it's not a big deal, i don't mind cos i can use any ubuntu image for an icon.. But i googled around and still can't find the one with "ubuntu" letter on it lol.. :p

So any idea where else can i get that image?

Thanks. But i still can't upload it to tinypic.. Only ubuntu.png that doesn't work, the other images (arch and fedora) work

do it with the xterminal
Code:
sudo cp <path to the icon> /usr/share/hicolor/scalable

Sorry i can't make the icon appear, it still shows blue square even after i reboot it.. moreover, the x-terminal crashes my device whenever i'm trying to save the change in this code :

Code:
[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Name=Ubuntu LXDE
GenericName=Ubuntu LXDE
Exec=/usr/bin/ubuntu-lxde
Icon=/usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/ubuntu.png
X-Osso-Type=application/x-executable
X-HildonDesk-ShowInToolbar=true
Type=Application
StartupNotify=true
Is the path correct already?

Like this?

Code:
[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Name=Ubuntu LXDE
GenericName=Ubuntu LXDE
Exec=/usr/bin/ubuntu-lxde
Icon=ubuntu
X-Osso-Type=application/x-executable
X-HildonDesk-ShowInToolbar=true
Type=Application
StartupNotify=true
It still doesn't work...

btw what's the difference between this and easy debian? Is it just faster?
