No, the onclosechroot.rc script doesn't exist.

Thank you Quole, that did the trick, no mysql in ps -ef now when closing easy debian.

ok time to look again at easy fedora if I can get the repos working...

again much thanks for this most useful application. I am sure with looking for work you have better things to do then update the app, so I really appreciate your responsiveness.

Manged to satisfactorily redefine keymapping.
Thanks Rebhana and Groxx for useful advice and links.

On a slightly different topic, I was wondering, given the
success of making such a nice working environment on the n900
via easy debian, which we owe quite a bit to qole, what will be the future of
easy debian on the next generation of devices? For example,
when the n9 comes out, (assuming it ever does) will there be an
effort to have something like easy debian on that device?

Sure you can, but with the standard way of installing Easy Debian you won't have to type in passwords anyway.

2 unrelated questions:

1) Is there an option to have easy debian close (unchroot) when you close the terminal?

2) trying to learn perl and trying to install the perl-doc package and getting the message

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
perl-doc: Depends: perl (>= 5.10.0-1) but it is not going to be installed
E: Broken packages
[root@deb-m5v3d: ~]

I have this version...

[root@deb-m5v3d: ~]perl -v |head

This is perl, v5.10.1 (*) built for arm-linux-gnueabi-thread-multi

thanks for listening...

OK I have a super-small script that gives keyboard focus to the currently active window. Tested it on PuTTY and it works.

So now I need a consensus for a good key combo to trigger the script. Also the xbindkeys codes (like "m:0x4 + c:111" for Ctrl + Up) would be nice for your combo.

Rebhana?

EDIT: I'll go with Fn + Return if someone gets me the xbindkeys codes.

Great! Fn+Return is

Code:

 m:0x80 + c:36
 Mod5 + Return

Would you mind posting your supershort script simply here? I'm curious and could test it on eric, which had similar issues.

Code:

# Script by Alan 'qole' Bruce
# with help from DaithiF on ubuntuforums.org for 
# the xprop | awk command to return the active window.

ACTIVEWINID=`xprop -root | awk '/NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW/ { print $5; exit }'`
sudo /sbin/qobi-wmhint-fix $ACTIVEWINID
sudo /usr/bin/set-focus $ACTIVEWINID

The script was a lot longer, but I kept stripping it down until that's all that was left... The comments are longer than the script, now...

EDIT: Confirmed! This fixes Eric.

New version 0.9.54 in Extras-devel puts that small script in your home dir and adds the needed lines to ~/.xbindkeysrc file. If you are upgrading, you will have to add the lines manually to your file or just

Code:

mv .xbindkeysrc.dist .xbindkeysrc

if you haven't changed anything in that file.
