Does anyone know if there are supposed to be issues when running abiword? OpenOffice and gnumeric work fine, but when I run abiword I get a blank screen. strace reveals that abiword is stuck on some lock (futex), and just stays there...

From Easy Debian Wiki page
Is it possible to install this virtual keyboard on n900.
In Diablo, i used this keyboard a lot.
Sometimes I need to run kde programs directly from x terminal using debbie <packagename> such as kchmviewer. I have a problem to enter a search string because n900 keyboard does not work for kchmviewer in maemo.
Note: I am aware that kchmviewer is available for maemo5 but some of its features are missing plus it cannot open some chm ebooks.
Q: How do I get the virtual keyboard to pop up in Debian Apps?
A: DIABLO/N8x0: Select the "Set Debian HW Keys" menu item; wait a bit, then you can press the minus (-) hardware key followed by the menu hardware key to toggle the Matchbox Keyboard. Press the (-) key then the (+) key to toggle between normal and mini (one-line) keyboards.
A: FREMANTLE/N900: There is no virtual keyboard in Maemo for Debian apps.

asyik: Try the same keyboard hack we use for LXDE for kchmviewer: press the power key and then press the screen outside the power menu, see if the keyboard works then.
new_bee: you will probably have to edit the file:
.config/lxpanel/LXDE/panels/panel or .config/lxpanel/LXDE/panels/top

openoffice works fine

my personal feedback from dummies point of view
while decompressing lzme file if you get a call or reminder or by any chance process isl stopped one lands into situation where i was
best way is some mechanism to avoid breaking the decompression
