hi Qole,
first thanks for your work

i have only one problem with my n810 hardware keyboard: everything include locale and xmodmap works perfect, but in hildon i use russian keyboard layout(Ctrl+Chr changes layout), and in lxde i cannot find a useful way to change keyboard layout. i try setxkbmap - it works from terminal window, but i didn't find any working grp_switch key combination and so no way to change layout back to english. PLease give me some advice.

Thanks.

yes! i've experienced this. i end up having to resave on the internal memory and later overwriting the old file,

attila77: nope, still broken on dmsetup 2:1.02.27-maemo5.

I removed and installed twice, to make sure, same problem, that pesky /etc/udev/rules.d/65_dmsetup.rules is not being handled correctly... If I delete the file manually, it installs OK.

I don't get it. What's different on your install compared to mine ? Here's how it looks on my N810 both with and without the file.

I just buy new microsd card 16Gb. it works fine, as I see.
I make 2 partitions in Gparted on Ubuntu 9.10 PC in cardreader:
SD - 10Gb and DEB - 5GB, ext2 fs. Extract the contents of debian-squeeze-rootfs.tar.bz2 on DEB partition and plug the card in my N810. Edit ~/.chroot file to point on this partition. Then make "sudo debian" and everything is OK, but last line in output is "segmentation fault" and chroot does not work. dmesg|tail does not show any problems. Working with usual image file seems no problems.
Why can it be?

Code:
BusyBox v1.6.1 (2008-09-18 09:43:17 EEST) Built-in shell (ash)
Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands.

Nokia-N810-43-7:~# debian
No chroot dir specified; using /debian
/dev/mmcblk1p2 specified in ~/.chroot
Mounting...
using device: /dev/mmcblk1p2
Using ext2 file system
mounting device: /dev/mmcblk1p2
.
..
...
....
Everything set up, running chroot...
Segmentation fault
Nokia-N810-43-7:~#
Seems very strange. I just tried to copy contents from my image file in DEB partition and this works fine. Problem solved

And also one question. I deleted OpenOffice, right after install Easy Debian. And when I move ED on big partition, I installed OpenOffice back. But now it cannot work, failing with message:
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'com::sun::star::ucb::InteractiveAugmentedIOExcept ion'

shanti: I had the same problem after trying to upgrade my OpenOffice installation. I guess the current version in the Sid / Testing repositories is broken (again). Try uninstalling, disabling (commenting out) the sid repos in /etc/apt/sources.list, then reinstalling...
