I don't understand this.. I do get a generic "app" icon that is accessible when switching away / back. Am I missing something?

Re launch times, it takes 25secs for OpenOffice to launch in my Diablo system: from tap on launch to the display of the OOO menu. The same test with Abiword (which I installed in the easy Debian image) launches in 20secs on my N800.

Re: FBREADER and the problem with Xbindkeys, I am afraid there's yet a more serious problem with this app. It has to do with the matchbof.defs hack. When active, FBREADER menus open way big and overflow the available screen space... and become thus unuseable.

What functionality does the hack truly enable? In LXDE, windows are fully moveable and resizable without this hack being active... so I am curious what do you actually need it for?

Once the Easy Debian image has been installed, is there any reason to keep the contents of ~/image-install around?

Re: Xbindkeys what do you propose now?
