    The best way to start up your Debian SSH (replacing your maemo SSH server) is to do the following:

    From a maemo terminal

    Code:
    sudo /etc/init.d/ssh stop
    sudo debian /etc/init.d/ssh start
    Benefit: X forwarding (of non-maemo apps) works without problems.
    Problem: You ssh into your chroot, not into maemo.

    Ok, beta-tester types, I've decided to use my own repository instead of extras-devel as a staging area for this next version. So in order to try the newest version out, you need to add my repository to your list of sources. After doing that, you should get easy-deb-chroot version 0.9.13, and it will automatically install my seriously revamped chroot scripts as a separate package, easy-chroot.

    I've decided that, due to problems discovered with my packages after I moved them to Extras, I'm going to be patient this time and wait till I get some feedback here before uploading them to Extras. If I don't get any feedback, I'll start another thread. Still no feedback, I'll post something on maemo.org/news, and if there's still no feedback... well, I'll cross that bridge when I get to it.

    My repository:
    Catalogue Name: Qole
    Web address: http://qole.maemobox.org/repository
    Distribution: maemo
    Components: main

    Once I'm sure that these new packages are working smoothly, I'll get my Easy Ubuntu package put together. The beauty of this new system is that Easy Ubuntu and Easy Debian will be able to live side-by-side, and you'll even be able to run apps from both distros simultaneously. That'll be weird.

    Using the new repository

    Installed and running debian from a 4GB partiton.

    Tested Apache and mySQL and all works from chroot fine.

    Edit: LXDE window just sits on white screen and nothing else happens.

    New version 0.9.14 in my testing repo; fixes rocketboy's LXDE bug.

    Keep testing, folks!

    Next version will have pton's mini keyboard.

    on a fresh flash, fresh install of 0.9.14 :

    you can go to LXDE one time only.

    I boot the nit, log to LXDE, log out of LXDE, back to NIT WM, try to log to LXDE for the second time and it's a no-go.

    I have to reboot the n810 if I want to go back to lxde after I logged out of it.

    anyway Qole, your application is very polished and usable.

    It look like your ubuntu package will also fall in the "must-have" category

    a BIG thank you

    false alert; happened 3 times yesterday, can't replicate the bug today.

    Hi Qole

    Just started to use the Switch to LXDE option and it complains about GTK+ icon theme not properly set but apart from that it appears to function.

    Windows need to be expanded and there is a bit of messing around with the screen when you logout of LXDE and then wireless restarts.

    Awesome work though!

    Hi! I just got my n810 two days ago and I am really excited by the idea of running Open Office on it. Easy Debian sounds amazing! However, when I try to follow the install instructions in this thread, my n810 crashes. Specifically, I download the package, start the Image Installer, which starts the download... then it gets to anywhere between 1 and 25% (usually around 4%) and freezes. And the n810 reboots.
    I tried simply re-initializing the image installer (it gets a tiny bit more then crashes again) as well as downloading the image on my desktop and copying it to my memory card (the image installer freezes while checking to see if the image is good). I never get an error message--it just freezes and reboots--so I have no idea what is causing this! Any ideas/suggestions? Thank you!
