Hi Qole,

after running the update this morning my webbrowser doens't seem to work anymore???
So strange.

Deinstallation of the whole package did remove this strange bug...

and after reinstallation everything keeps working...

Is there any reason I should upgrade if I've got my filesystem setup with lots of stuff installed? Is there a way to replicate what changed in the rootfs in mine without starting over?

debernardis: Does the performance governor make a difference on the N900? I had been told otherwise.

twoboxen: I'll try to post a small file with the Debian rootfs changes. But you can use the new rootfs without harming your old one. It is just (another) 2GB file in MyDocs...

That would be great! Thanks.

Ok, I've tried to think of all the changes I've made. I've probably forgot some... Anyway, I've put the new/changed files into chroot-changes.tgz for you to download. This untars into a directory called "chroot" which should be then copied over to your mounted chroot with the "chroot" dir being the / (root dir) of your chroot.

You also need to apt-get install zenity and habak into your chroot.

Tried updating to newest version today, cannot install: "Operation temporary disabled due to low memory" all the time :-(

Where did i go wrong or miss something ?
I had the last version of Debian LXDE running with the installer and it worked from the start.
No i have lot of Problems.
I Flashed my N900 and want to install the LXDE. Download works well, but then the problem starts. The part where the installer extracts, my N900 starts to freeze, i had the message "Operation temporary disabled due to low memory"
3 or 4 times later i was looking, the Homescreen was here. I started LXDE and get this error :

Mount failure!
/media/debian-m5-v2.img.ext2.bz2 failed to mount on loop0
mount: mounting /dev/loop0 ond /debian failed: Invalid argument

I liked that app, but it looks like im not good enough to use it

Same here... ;/
ps.
With old img was fine... ;p

This was a great project.

I've installed it.
Things work great, slow of course.
I installed it in MyDocs and changed /debian to /.debian and pointed it to this in .chroot in /home/user

The keybord is mapped for "us" in LXDE, and I got nordic mapping. So it would be nice if there was a choice for different layout in the install-process.

I did the
"echo performance >/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor"

Is there more trick for performance?

you have to extract the image first, using bzip2 or something that can handle the format, and then mount the extracted file (should be called "debian-m5-v2.img.ext2", without .bz2).

if all these steps are supposed to be included in an installation script, a bz2 image does not make much sense, since tar on the N900 doesn't support bzip2.
