That would be too obvious. How about:

Shift + Ctrl + Func + Back

Re: Easy Debian Fremantle Beta Testing
 

How do I get back to the standard image? When I uninstall easy debian chroot and delete the image on MyDocs, the programs that I installed are still there when I reinstall the Debian chroot program. I redownloaded the image with the debian image installer as well. Are files stored elsewhere? For example my openoffice has missing icons now and I want to go back to the original image. Thanks.

Delete the image in MyDocs, and then use the image installer to redownload it.

PS: That is, unles the image has changed.

Delete the debian-m5-v2.img.ext2 file then make sure you reboot.

Re: Easy Debian Fremantle Beta Testing
 

Hi I'm getting ready to install Easy-Debian.
I have a 16GB microSD card. I was planning to make a 4GB ext2 and a 12GB FAT32 partition. What are the steps to expand the image to the partition? By the way, should the 4GB partition be ext2?
I thought that Maemo would not automatically mount partitions in the SD card if they're not FAT.
Also, should I install both the easy-deb-chroot and easy-chroot packages currently in extras?
Thanks,

Re: Easy Debian Fremantle Beta Testing
 

Now that I've got Easy Debian into Extras, I have pushed the next versions of the two packages to Extras-testing. Please install, test, and vote.

Easy Debian:

This version adds an icon to enable a hardware key combo for fullscreen toggle (Ctrl-up), an icon for openoffice.org (both back by popular demand), and a fix for the /.debian bug in the /sbin/debian script and the "Close Debian" icon.

Easy Chroot:

This version removes an unnecessary comment from the image mounting portion of /sbin/qmount, and it fixes the command line prompt for images (the image name is now shown after the "user@" instead of just "chroot").

Re: Easy Debian Fremantle Beta Testing
 

Qole: I get a unable to install for easy debian chroot when i uninstall it. It still shows up with the icons though and I don't have the "start" menu any longer in LXDE as in the top bar is missing.

Re: Easy Debian Fremantle Beta Testing
 

I was downloading/installing the image to /MyDocs and the n900 crashed. I think due to other apps I had open.
Had to pull out the battery. I booted back in. deleted the 2 image files it created using the file manager. rebooted, but once done I did not get back the full space it had used.

how do I gain back that missing 1GB?

thank you

andyph666: You are still being much too vague for me to help you.

You get the "unable to install" in the Application Manager? When you uninstall what? Easy Debian? Why would it say "unable to install" when you are uninstalling it? And what shows up with the icons?
