    Add the extras-testing repository as described here: https://wiki.maemo.org/Extras-testing (and I recommend disabling it after installing the app so as not to get unstable updates to regular stuff)

    Can you screenshot your error, and the settings you have put in? (I for one put freemantle instead of fremantle, and got the same error)
    (Ctrl+Shift+P on the device to screenshot it - image can be found in the images folder)

    It's called simply extras instead of extras-testing, but doesn't yet have the flashlight app.

    Yeah, it's called App Manager. Normal users don't use a deb file every time they want to install apps, and devs are fine using xterm. Even so, devs still don't usually deal with deb files except in development.

    I can't seem to install applications using xterm.

    I have the Rootsh programming and start with sudo gainroot.

    Problem is, even using the correct structure it just tells me that the directory is not found, I don't get it....
