Since this is my first post to this thread, I'd firstly like to thank everyone involved (especially qole), but thanking everyone would take forever.

I am running into some problems though.


I second the idea that the wiki should include further explanation on Xephyr. I'd volunteer, but I'm currently lost, running two separate chroot partitions on external SD: one to load with bootmenu, and one to load from maemo with Xephyr.

I'd like to consolidate this into one simple partition, but...

The easy-debian partition won't boot from bootmenu-n900, and the debbootstrap partition won't load in Xephyr. The post I quoted doesn't quite fix this. I installed all the packages referenced.

For my bootable debian partition, when I call the debian-lxde script from easy-deb-chroot 0.9.53-1freemantle1, a window with a pointer shows up ( DISPLAY=:1 ), and then the terminals I've set to start in /root/.xsession load in separate windows ( DISPLAY=:0 ). The window manager (fluxbox) never loads. Otherwise it works fine if I use the easy-debian partition.

(EDIT: I can start the window manager from a chroot terminal however.)


For my easy-debian partition, I set an item in /etc/bootmenu.d/, but it never loads past the bootmenu screen. Otherwise it works fine from the bootstrapped partition.


Also, I am trying to find out how to mount and modify Maemo JFFS/NAND from a bootmenu setup, (so I don't have to reflash when I screw up something simple in Maemo). It would be very nice to have easy-debian setup for this purpose.

Any help would be appreciated as always.
