I think I'd have better luck with xfce than I'm having with matchbox. The matchbox keyboard really doesn't work at all on the hildon desktop (it crashes the desktop completely), and I think I'd have more luck with xfce4 and xvkbd.

What I need to know is: where is the init script for debian? There's gotta be a text file that I can change from "hildon-desktop" to "xfce4-session" ...

Also, the sources.list I gave before isn't complete. At the very least, we need (new bits bolded):

http://http.us.debian.org/debian sid contrib main non-free
http://http.us.debian.org/debian sid contrib main non-free

But hey, we're on the cutting edge anyway, so I would recommend the "kitchen-sink" approach, and make a sources list with this too:

http://http.us.debian.org/debian unstable contrib main non-free
http://http.us.debian.org/debian testing contrib main non-free
http://http.us.debian.org/debian testing-proposed-updates contrib main non-free

EDIT: Here's a weird thing. They seem to have pulled "vncserver" (and all of its relatives) from the armel distributions. Why? Is there anywhere else I can get it?

EDIT AGAIN:

This page has some useful info about Debian Init Scripts:
http://wiki.debianhelp.org/pmwiki.ph...ianInitScripts

This has some more stuff about the init.d scripts:
http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/28

I'm still having a hard time finding the init script for xfce4, however. I've installed it, but it doesn't seem to have a startup script in init.d ...
