I've been running your debian-squeeze-m5-img.bz2 for a few weeks on the n900 and the only issue i've run into was the locale setting.
Did you figure out how to solve that? I have the same issue and it blocks apt-get and synaptic from doing updates

Peio, does your openoffice.org still work after aptitude upgrade? I'm asking you because last time I did, the updated openoffice did not work, and I was waiting for the debian coders to repair the broken new version.
If you can confirm that the upgraded version really works, I'll update-upgrade mine
Thanks, Ernesto

Yes it works after the upgrade
To be more precise, I did "aptitude safe-upgrade", because I was adviced to do that when I first tried "aptitude upgrade" (and didn't):

Code:
sh-3.2$ sudo aptitude safe-upgrade

Hi there (my first post!),

Has anyone had any luck getting web pages with embedded java to load correctly? On a pristine install of the debian image, both epiphany and iceweasel hang on my N900 when trying to view a embedded java web page. If I then uninstall icedtea-gcjwebplugin and use the plugin from icedtea6-plugin instead, the browsers no longer hang but the java content does not display; one sees only a grey box.

I'll post error messages if necessary. In the meantime it would be interesting to know if anyone had java working in their browsers in easy debian chroot on the N900.

Cheers,

drako

drako:

I can't suggest a fix; as you found, both gcj and icedtea plugin viewers are broken...

I'm going to try an old image file...

Beware that apt-get update && apt-get upgrade still breaks openoffice.org - they haven't fixed it yet

Old image file has the same brokenness in Java. This suggests something else is broken, something with the interaction of Maemo 5 and the Debian chroot.

Just a note, we have a working, reasonably fast Java in Maemo now, although not in the browser. Please see this thread: JAVA on the N900 is possible, specifically starting here.

EDIT: There is also another brokenness that bothers me greatly. There are constant complaints from Debian apps that the GConf daemon is not responding to messages from the client. These error messages are new to Maemo 5.

With the m5-v2 image, i did apt-get update in order to be able to install kchmviewer. It didn't break openoffice... my openoffice writer runs hapilly. I don't recall having done an apt-get upgrade, though.

sudo passwd root did the trick.
