    maybe this will help someone

    After closing and opening debian lxde again the problem comes back so I have to through the whole process again
    Any fixed solution for this?

    "dpkg-reconfigure locales" didn't work for me with the karmic image.
    But i changed LANG in /etc/environment and used "localedef -i de_DE -f UTF-8 de_DE" to get rid of the language related warning.

    Unfortunately debwm/qobi-wmhint-fix give me: Xephyr cannot open host display. Is DISPLAY set? xephfocus/set-focus is working, but i'm loosing focus when i switch to Maemo. Any suggestions how to fix?

    Hi there.

    I figured it out. When I installed the image I was in USB Mass storage mode and it did install it in the MyDocs folder, but when I unplugged the USB cable it went back to normal "Phone mode" and did not display the image files that was downloaded there. When I tryed the ls command in MyDocs while I was in USB mass storage mode it showed the 2 files again. I removed both image debain* files and now my /home is back to 50% again. Who would have thought!

    Thanks for all the help. You guys rock!! No really.. You guys are awesome. I'm glad to be part of this amazing community!

    But let me attach a file that consistently makes OO crash, and in the past has also made N900 crash. It basically happens when you scroll down to the bullet points. I had to upload it as a .zip as .odt's can't be attached.
    I've noticed that now squeeze also has OpenOffice 3.2.1-4 which avidscavenger had problems with.

    After making a backup of my current image, I've tested this version by upgrading with
    Code:
    apt-get update
    apt-get install openoffice.org-writer openoffice.org-impress openoffice.org-calc openoffice.org-math openoffice.org-style-crystal openoffice.org-style-galaxy openoffice.org-style-hicontrast openoffice.org-style-tango openoffice.org-emailmerge python-uno
    apt-get clean
    In contrast to the previous version, I had to explicitly include python-uno in the above list, otherwise the upgrade would be incomplete and moreover Gimp would get de-installed. With it, Gimp gets upgraded from 2.6.7 to 2.6.10.

    So far I found no problems with the newer version. Both OO and Gimp look fine, and I can read avidscavenger's file without any issues.

    Hello,

    What is the command to enable squeeze? I couldnt get it enabled using the wiki. Also, do I use the debian xterm or the maemo xterm to enable squeeze and update OO and Gimp. I know these may be questions with obvious answers to some but I need help with updating and your successful update has encouraged me to try again.

    Thank you.

    In the Debian chroot terminal (red swirl icon) open the file /etc/apt/sources.list with an editor of your choice, e.g.
    Code:
    leafpad /etc/apt/sources.list
    and then uncomment the line
    Code:
    #deb http://http.us.debian.org/debian squeeze main contrib non-free
    i.e., remove the "#".

    Just for information, when i tried to upgrade i had to export TMPDIR= to any directory except rootfs (/user/lost+found/ for example. May be this could prevent programms from crashing, when rootfs is very full!

    Hi All;

    I'm not sure whether or not this has yet been covered (I searched the thread and came up empty) but after the PR1.2 update, the fn key seems to function as another enter key under LXDE, which makes it rather difficult to type in numbers. This is an issue seeing as I can no longer type in IP-addresses in applications such as wireshark and zenmap.

    I'm currently running from a ext2 partition on my memory card, and have changed nothing since before PR1.2

    Any ideas?

    I've found a sure-fire way to make my N900 crash using Easy-Debian. I'll look in greater detail if noone replies but thought I'd write about it first in case it's immediately obvious to someone else is what the problem is.

    The thing I'm doing that's a bit unusual is that I'm mounting a LUKS-encrypted ext2 partition on my micro-SDHC card. This is important to me as I want to carry data with me that, for contractual reasons as well as common sense, needs to be encrypted. If I don't mount this partition then I don't get the crash. I haven't tried non-encrypted or other filesystems to see if that helps to isolate the problem.

    OK, so on a freshly booted N900, running from a shell over ssh, I do the following to mount my partition:

    $ cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/mmcblk1 mmc1
    $ mount -t ext2 /dev/mapper/mmc1 /media/mmc1

    then

    $ debbie
    Starting Debian shell...
    Chroot dir specified: /.debian
    No image file or partition specified.
    ls: /media/mmc1/debian*.img*: No such file or directory
    Mounting...
    using image file: /home/user/MyDocs/debian-m5-v3d.img.ext2
    fs type is ext2
    Using ext2 file system
    mounting /home/user/MyDocs/debian-m5-v3d.img.ext2 on the turbo-loop
    .../home/user/MyDocs/debian-m5-v3d.img.ext2 mounted on loop1
    .
    ..
    ...
    ....
    Updating the /etc/mtab file...
    Everything set up, running chroot...
    [user@chroot: /]exit
    exit

    So far so good. Now I attempt to close the debian turbo-loop:

    $ sudo closechroot
    Closing the chroot...
    ...closing chroot apps...
    Terminated

    And my N900 bites the dust....... Any ideas?
