Re: Debian "Sneak Preview" Release for N800/N810!
 

@johnx: thank you for the reply. I'm not too much expert in this, sorry, I'd like to set up the xfce4, or another one, to be the default WM instead of hildon, so when I boot to debian it loads automatically. I think I need to edit some script to disable hildon start and add "exec startxfce4" or something like that. At this time, since I can't open a roxterm(it loads and exit very quickly, weird no?) to enable the wireless connection, I use chroot from a maemo terminal :/

Thanks! :)

EDIT: just to know where I enable/diable the hildon desktop and matchbox from loading and set xfce4 to load instead of them.

Quick post here.

I got e17 running on my 770 and it's pretty fast. Thought I'd drop you a line since this thread + SID on 770 are somewhat related threads.

Cheerios folks!

I have xfce4 installed but I'm only able to run it using chroot and the vncviewer, but when I boot debian it loads hildon :( I don't know how to set xfce4 as the default :(

Just a note, Firefox (iceweasel) doesn't run under Debian armel yet, don't waste your time installing. Here's my post (with picture) in another thread.

Hi,
Yesterday, i tried it with my N810 and successfully booted into Debian on sd .
Touchscreen works ,but no buttons and internal-keyboard works ...
I did "cp /mnt/initfs/usr/share/hal/policy/10osvendor/10-xkb.fdi /usr/share/hal/policy/10osvendor/" ,
and also did "mv /usr/share/X11/xkb /usr/share/X11/xkb-orig && cp -a /mnt/initfs/usr/share/X11/xkb/ /usr/share/X11/xkb/" , but had no luck with them.
Does anyone help getting internal-keyboard and buttions worked ?

Could you try unpacking it again, and this time save the *all* the output of the command you used to unpack it. Something like this should do it:
tar jxvf foo.tar.bz2 2> errors.log 1> output.log

Then post errors.log and output.log up here. Thanks!

Hi, ondra1234.
Did you use tar installed by default to unpack?
Busybox's tar has some bugs so you need to use this one.
