Even better, there's a really fast new xterminal for LXDE called... lxterminal of course! I highly recommend it. It starts lightning quick.

But I never use the terminal inside LXDE. I like osso-xterm. I don't see the point of starting a second environment just to run a terminal inside the environment... Open osso-xterm, enter "sudo debian" (for root access) or "debbie" (for user access) to get into the chroot, then enter

Code:

DISPLAY=:1

and everything you run from then on will display in LXDE instead of Hildon. Cool, huh?
