I don't get any further then starting ossofilemanager and displaying it via vnc. All other programs depend on a running dbus-session. This is, where my knowledge ends, cause ps -aux shows the (Android) dbus, which is running outside the chroot...

This story has its happy end, after all. Decided to give it another chance and voila, I'm happy now
This will replace my S3 together with a (soon-to-be-installed) Ubuntu Nexus 7, which I bought yesterday.
Will keep the S3 though, hoping for Ubuntu phone os for it to come

One bit of advice from one N9 owner (lover) to another: forget what you've ever known about the N900. You dont need to know about it. Linux knowledge is helpful. Android is different, and a bit irrelevant.
I dont use meecatalog, i use the Nokia store, and line commands / instructions from the devs. inception is pretty much required.
and welcome back.

one (maybe stupid) question: do I need Inception, though I have openmode now?

Now if we can just get a decent FB client on the N9, we'll be in business.
It IS a shame the same apps arent available on android, but it does give a lovely community feel that android doesnt have (except on xda regarding custom firmwares etc)...

Post a question on xda and you might wait forever for somebody to answer or sometimes you also get rude answers... Maybe xda is just too big for a community.

Well, I guess I'm stupid or oldfashioned or both, but I just bought another used N900 I'm done with Android and patiently waiting for Sailfish to come, the N9 is no alternative for me so I'm hoping for my 3rd and last N900 (sold the other two long time ago) to shorten the waiting time
