openbox+fbpanel sounds interresting, I have installed both;

the hint how to stop matchbox on this thread (p2,#15) works, but leaves the left and top panels (whatever they are called) running. How to kill those?

Openbox seems to need complete keyboard reconfiguration for an N810. Do you have a template openbox.rc?

Similarly, fbpanel. Can you post your configuration files?

I want to use my N810 as X11-terminal over ssh.
