Maybe try downloading from another computer, and then copying the file onto your SD card. The installer will find the file and check it, and if it isn't corrupt, it will unzip it.

Would it help if you upload it to a torrent site? I would help seed.

Re: ANNOUNCE: Easy Debian Turbo-Charged Edition!

The file is here:

Feel free to mirror it, torrent it or whatever you like.

Entonian: It is very important that you download the new image file and delete the old one. The old image file didn't have LXDE installed, while the new one does.

If you are sure that you're using the new image file, then here's how to run LXDE manually:

First, open a (normal, maemo) terminal and run the following to put the icon in the right place:

Code:

sudo cp /usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/hildon/lxde.png /usr/share/pixmaps

You only have to run that command once, so that you can run LXDE from a terminal. Otherwise it crashes with an error about a missing icon.

The command that is run when you click on the icon is something like this:

Code:

hostwin LXDE /usr/bin/debwm 'this is a test'

The problem is that there are a lot of warning messages even when things are running smoothly. I guess you're going to have to post everything, however.

Okay ive had the same problem. Lxde just says 'log out instead of closing this window' and after this its just closes. I did what you told him^, and this is what i got

~ $ sudo cp /usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalabl e/hildon/lxde.png /usr/share/pixmaps
~ $ hostwin LXDE /usr/bin/debwm hostwin[1712]: GLIB WARNING ** Gtk - gtk_wid get_size_allocate(): attempt to allocate wid get with width -24 and height 0

You need to reboot and run the debian chroot again.

Get an x-terminal, enter "sudo debian" and post the results.

I'm on vacation, I might not respond right away.

Re: ANNOUNCE: Easy Debian Turbo-Charged Edition!

Thats fine. Reply in your own time.
I typed in sudo debian and it says

~ $ sudo debian
chroot set up already!
Everything set up, running chroot...

Also when debian chroot is opened this is displayed

Re: ANNOUNCE: Easy Debian Turbo-Charged Edition!

Hey Qole,

Thanks so much for this! This is EXACTLY the program I was hoping to come across on here. I had one question though. When I download or try to open a word document it says there is no program to open it and when I look through the list Open Office doesn't appear. If I open OpenOffice and then Open... from there, it works fine but I was wondering if there was a way to make OpenOffice be associated with Word Documents so when I try to open one from my e-mail it just automatically opens OpenOffice. Is there any way to do that?
