Re: [Announce] Easy Debian for MeeGo Harmattan : now with translucent VKB on PR1.3 !

If the files are in /home/user/inception, you'd need:

Code:

$ /usr/sbin/incept /home/user/inception/aegisctl_1.3_armel.deb

$ /usr/sbin/incept /home/user/inception/opensh_1.00_armel.deb

Note that you are using the 'incept' application, which is located in /usr/sbin, hence '/usr/sbin/incept'. There is a space between '.../incept' and the file path.

3) Javispedro solution for using MeeGo virtual keyboard (vkb), now the v1.2 is translucent and works with PR1.2/PR1.3. Download the new xmimd_1.2_armel.deb package to some folder (e.g., "/home/user/") in your Nokia N9/N950 and install it using the X-Terminal :
$ devel-su
type the root password, then :
# cd ~user

Are you using inception or open mode kernel ?

The xmimd version is now 1.2, see item B-3.

Follow the 1st post of this topic.

I was using the inception

I was following along with the first thread, could the issue be that I put 1.1 not 1.2?

so I opened terminal, entered devel-su and the password

then I typed

# cd ~user

the then displayed

/home/user #
so I typed in: dpkg -i xmimd_1.2_armel.deb

and its again telling me
Aegis rejecting xmimd_1.2_armel.deb: Could not open debian archive
aegis aborting dpkg -- all listed package files rejected

/home/user #

is the problem the location of the folder?

I have all the files for this install in home/user/inception

Yes, the problem is the location of the files. The dpkg doesn't find the .deb file to install.

So enter the correct folder using cd (cd /home/user/inception) or place the files in ~.

So I would need to type:

that is working, but now I am to this

Quote:

Choosing a Debian image :
Easy Debian needs a Debian image (ext2 or ext3 type) in "/home/user/MyDocs" and named "debian*.img*". You need 3GB (or more) available on "MyDocs" partition.
1) Choose a Debian image :
There are some options of Debian images, see their detailed description in post #137.
It's recommended to use the most stable image where all Easy Debian icons work, it is a scientific version of Qole's default Easy Debian image, debian-m5-v3e-Sci-2GB.img.ext2.lzma (04/08/2012, 486 MB of download, 2GB after uncompressing, 176 MB available inside it). If downloaded before 04/08/2012, please download it again as it was updated. Copy it to "/home/user/MyDocs/" then, as user in Terminal :
$ cd ~/MyDocs
$ xz -d debian-m5-v3e-Sci-2GB.img.ext2.lzma

when I try to enter $ cd ~/MyDocs

it tells me

sh: cd: can't cd to /root/MyDocs

the file "debian-m5-v3e-Sci-2GB.img.ext2.lzma" is located in "/home/user/MyDocs/"

Thanks again

Pay attention to the instructions, you are logged as "root" user (after "devel-su") instead of "user" user. The instructions of 1st post says "Copy it to "/home/user/MyDocs/" then, as user in Terminal :
$ cd ~/MyDocs
$ xz -d debian-m5-v3e-Sci-2GB.img.ext2.lzma".

ok, so no password or devel-su are needed, great

just open terminal and immediately type

$ xz -d debian-m5-v3e-Sci-2GB.img.ext2.lzma

Yes, "devel-su" is needed, see item B.3 of 1st topic :
"$ devel-su
type the root password, then :"
If the problem persists, as root remove xmimd before installing v1.2 :

Follow exactly the 1st post, item B-3. Download xmimd_1.2_armel.deb (it has 44.210 bytes) and put it (without renaming) in "/home/user/" of your N9. The commands are simple enough to type directly in N9 vkb.

It's say

When i start to try to install debian, inception and aegis was already installed ( via n9qtweak )
Facing this error, i checked version, it's same version for all package, but i reinstalled aegisctl following exactly the topic procedure, because i don't completly understand how to use aegis ..

Sorry, but your 2nd last message shows that xmimd is installed :
"package 'xmimd' already installed from 'com.nokia.maemo/local'"
And my N9 shows a different message from "apt-cache show xmimd2" (an unknown package) :
"W: Unable to locate package xmimd2
E: No packages found"

What are you using ? Nokia N9 ? With PR (firmware) ? It has inception or open mode kernel ?

Re: [Announce] Easy Debian for MeeGo Harmattan : now with VKB on PR1.3 !

Can anybody confirm whether this "debian-m5-v3e-Sci-2GB.img.ext2.lzma" is corrupted or not?

I get

xz: debian-m5-v3e-Sci-2GB.img.ext2.lzma: Compressed data is corrupt

I have downloaded it using wget. Took 3 nights to complete. (Used Profilematic to schedule auto dowload via wget coz of slow internet connection and night data allowance)

Actual file size is 486MB but the downloaded file is 604MB.

Hope someone'd help.

Re: [Announce] Easy Debian for MeeGo Harmattan : now with translucent VKB on PR1.3 !

I have accidentally changed the taskbar (bottom one with start/menu) background image. Please help me to restore it. I tried some paths but couldn't find the file. Then I tried to remove debian and reinstall. First opened close debian. Then rm -f debian image. Then removed chroot n all in case it's necessary. Also deleted some files existed in /home/user/

But still after reinstalling debian I can't see any change. I don't get a restored desktop. Please tell me how to reinstall debian so that everything will be default as first try.

Some configuration files of the Debian images are stored in "/home/user/.config/" : lxde, lxpanel, openbox, pcmanfm directories. To reset the configuration, run as root in MeeGo Terminal :
# cd /home/user/.config/
# rm -rf lxde lxpanel openbox pcmanfm
It is useful when switching from one Debian image to another yields strange look & feel.

So I recommend the commands above in boldface.

And post #34 about v1.0.3 of Easy Debian Harmattan :

Quote:

2) the fonts and GUI appearance inside and outside LXDE are changed (see the updated screenshots of the 1st post) :
- font Droid Sans 10 for applications outside LXDE, specified by the file "/home/user/.gtkrc-2.0";
- font Droid Sans 12 for LXDE, see file "/home/user/.config/lxde/config";
- LXDE with large window title bar with larger buttons, specified by the title font DejaVu Sans 18 in file "/home/user/.config/openbox/lxde-rc.xml".
So it is now easier to read and interact by tapping the screen.
You can tune the font size to your preference by editing the above configuration files (which are now installed by Easy Debian package).
And uncommenting (removing #) the line "# gtk-theme-name="MurrinaNightOrange" inside "/home/user/.gtkrc-2.0" gives a darker theme inside and outside LXDE.

More help is available in LXDE sites with documentation, hints & tips.
