To install, it's easiest to install openssh on the N900 then use something like winscp or an ftp client to copy files to the N900 (I use filezilla). Be warned though that you can delete or screw up files on your N900 and may have to re-flash. If you only install the files in this package you should be OK.

I also installed all the files in /usr/share/icons/hicolor..... to /home/user/.local/share/icons/hicolor...

this way I don't overwrite the files on my root filesystem and only have to delete the files in the .local folder to return to the originals.

I think I used everything but the phone,media player, and general web icons. I also left the task manager/switcher and close items "stock".

And I updated the web shortcut to remove the explorer "E" attached.
Thanks! I got access using your metod.

Something else that i have to ask tho..

Say i want to change the "general_default_avatar"..
The instructions tells me to place in usr/share/icons/hicolor/216x216.
There is no files there to replace, so then i don't understand.. Will the N900 use the new avatar, or is it as i imagine that it shuld be plased under the folder "hildon"? (usr/share/icons/hicolor/216x216/hildon)
There are several avatar files there, so i imagine that one of them have to be replased..?

Told you i'm a complete noob, but i don't want to make a mess of my N900.. lol
