I cannot renember a linux which is bounded to a specific gui or you confuse something.

Maemo isnt binary compatible anymore to its parent debian. I do not have anything against a "Maemo Desktop Enviroment" (besides the fact that it is much less configurable than kde for ex.).

I just want to use the linux software of my choice without waiting for someone of the small maemo developper community to port it.
