Your /home/user/.* settings are probably all messed up. You want them to be user:user for permissions.. the Easy Debian uses the same /home/user as maemo.. so by just making a new user wouldn't change that it would still try and use /home/user's home directory in maemo.. thus the new user wouldn't have rights to it's own home drive.. If I'm understanding you correctly.
I speak bad english, sorry. Maemos hildon still works, but the hildon-desktop i installed to my debian did not work because it tryes to load same settings that maemo uses. Thats why i created new user named "hil" to my debian environment, hoping that because its own home-directory, it would not try to load maemos settings.
btw, i am not trying to use hildon in my debian any more.
I just installed the whole debian again, because dpkg vines about I/O errors in some files (i was not able to install any stuff).
And LXDE still does load "original settings" every time i start it.
But it sometimes shows this error:
GTK+ icon theme is not properly set
This usually means you don't have an XSETTINGS manager running. Desktop environment like GNOME or XFCE automatically execute their XSETTING managers like gnome-settings-daemon or xfce-mcs-manager.
If you don't use these desktop environments, you have two choices:
1. run an XSETTINGS manager, or
2. simply specify an icon theme in ~/.gtkrc-2.0.
For example to use the Tango icon theme add a line:
gtk-icon-theme-name="Tango" in your ~/.gtkrc-2.0. (create it if no such file)
NOTICE: The icon theme you choose should be compatible with GNOME, or the file icons cannot be displayed correctly. Due to the differences in icon naming of GNOME and KDE, KDE themes cannot be used. Currently there is no standard for this, but it will be solved by freedesktop.org in the future.
So, it seems to be problen with xsettings manager, witch is propably not running?
Qole, fatalsaint, in another thread suggested you would be the best one to ask the following question. I installed the Easy Debian 6-2 .deb file. Installation went without a problem, and seems to be running well; my N800 is becoming more of a pocket-sized laptop replacement. I notice that you have a more recent 9-1 .deb file up and I am wondering what advantages does this version offer over the previous?
Fatalsaint, you were right.
it was a permission problem. LXDE did not have any permissions to .config...
I did not post output of that command, because it was lo large that it doest fit in two replies.
Thank You
HowHH, i installed the latest chroot .deb and i think it has the latest scripts, with some speed hacks etc...
Is there a thread about sound in easy debian? i am so sure it is somewhere, but i did not find it... It would be nice to have sound when using audacity . The sound works only in gmpc?
I was wondering if I could get some help. I installed everything properly on an n800, I have the newest firmware (diablo), I have python 2.5 and the python2.5-gtk2 installed, and I still can't get IceWM to open. It loads, then it closes a second later. Iceweasele won't open either. Any help?
Yea, I used the image installer. Unless I downloaded an outdated file initially. It was the file in the first page of this thread - easy-deb-chroot-0.6-2_armel.deb. Also, I think this thing has really slowed down installing other programs, as the application manager window can take over a minute to start installing things now. The Synaptic manager works, but no other part of it. Still stuck...
