Run Debian chroot first. It opens a terminal window and runs the chroot setup. After that all the other Debian programs will open in a window in Maemo without running icewm.
Icewm is a window manager with an interface that works similar to MSWindows. The debian button works the same as the Windows Start button. Click it to get a list of installed programs to run.

Iceweasel will take a very long time to open in Maemo if you select it from the menu. You have to be patient. It doesn't have a splash screen with a progress bar like OpenOffice, and it takes at least as long to open.

Actually the Debian chroot setup runs any time you click on a Debian icon in Maemo, you shouldn't have to open the terminal window at all.
I killed cupsd and started cupsd in chroot then ran localhost:631 in iceweasel. No printers or print jobs were listed. I tried installing the printer and it eventually asks for a user or root password. Neither root/rootme or user/rootme worked. What should I use for a username/password?
The password info is copied into Debian from Maemo. So whatever your root password is in Maemo, that should work here too. If you have never set up a root password, you really should....
I don't see the menu/taskbar at the bottom. It seems like if it can go into full screen, I might be able to view it. Right now its not in fullscreen. How do I make ICEwm into full screen? The fullscreen button doesn't seem to have an affect on it.
I had this problem once, not sure why, I reboot the Tablet and it has been working fine since. Not sure if this will fix yours or not but it worked for me.

Yeah, if the window isn't going fullscreen, you should definitely try a reboot. The bottom bar is there, but it is hidden because you shouldn't be seeing it in a window.
Ah, I have an idea! Do you have python2.5 and python2.5-gtk2 installed? Because I use a tiny Python script to open the window that the IceWM starts in. If you don't see the window pop open, with instructions about logging out before closing the window, you probably need the Python stuff.
