To be honest: I think you could provide a little more information and warning to the people that follow your guide and I mean more than just "Install at your own risk". It's not that it will brick your n900, but having to reboot because you loose your mounhtpoints (/MyDocs) and you qumount doesn't do the job properly, it also means that if you want to listen music, right after having played with one of the setups here, you'll be in for a wait untill the tracker finishes re-indexing all your music files. Those kind of things should be communicated. If you didn't know yourself, it illustrates why I wrote this post.

To illustrate what I mean: I noticed the whole window parsing module was missing when I installed Arch, I ask you about it, and without saying, it turns out you update the guide on the first page. Why don't you share that information with the people who are reading page 12 of your thread?

I started with Arch linux, because that was the only thing that had my interest, actually E17 has my interest. But another guy asked about the Xephyr keyboard-focus on Ubuntu or Fedora and has not been answered. My guess is now, it's not working there either.

Apart from that, I guess you need to be more precise in your listing of steps to take. Need to leave a non-rooted terminal aside? Make sure you communicate that. Need root-access in order to perform a task? Make sure the people who read know they need to change to root.

So, just to be sure: I am not complaining here. I spent a free day yesterday, playing around with your findings, googling for a solution for the keyboard focus-thing, and I have enjoyed myself. So I hope you can take my post as constructive criticism

Keep up the good work!
this is not a finish thread, its working in progres, I think its pretty amazing what we had so far, and yes there still some troubles, thats one of the reasons why I posted, to improve this with the community, Ithink I've asked all your questions, and ofcourse its very important to update the first post because that solution should help for new people from the start and dont have to read 12 pages just to find a solution, about qumount complaint, that in fact do the job for me. So please check the file again maybe some typing mistake.
I'm pretty busy with my job, getting long rounds, so if anyone know the solution of the questions that somebody ask please help me

Thanks a lot for take interest on the thread I will try to improve what you ask
