I believe I have solved the exec format error problem. You have to be running the power users kernel. I was testing mine on a fresh flash of N900 and was receiving that same error myself.

Do a ` apt-get install kernel-power* `, reboot, and try chrooting again.

keyboard works ok on presence vnc but is all in caps on vnc viewer, vnc viewer seems to be a good bit more responsive too... would still prefer it to be a system in itself

presencevnc seems to be working quite well for me.

Got it working on my N900.

Problems i have are:

- Keyboard not typing anything like what i'm entering.
- Screen resolution is not 800x480 (i assuming it's currently at the BT5 default)

Whenever i try to change the resolution i get a couple of errors regarding locale settings and bad display name "Nokia-N900:1"

EDIT: Fixed the resolution by editing /usr/bin/startvnc myself.
Still getting locale errors when running startvnc and the messed up keyboard, but slowly getting there :-)

Had an idea about the keyboard(..wonder why i havent checked earlier). I checked Text Input on my N900 settings. I had Hardware Keyboard set to Greek. Turned it to English,Netherlands full of hope but still no luck. Messed up characters.

To those without a keyboard problem, whats your Text Input Settings on your N900?

@jamesgloucester
Answer the above question pls

Edit:Also, does anyone have UKeyboard installed ?

And the install went through okay, and you rebooted?
