Do you know whether the native version works with grps?

In fact, I had installed the native version originally under Maemo, a year ago by now, but I had some problems with it. When PR1.1 came out, wifi stopped working because the package had tampered with system files, and I found out that deinstalling vpnc didn't restore the modifications it had introduced. The maintainer of the package didn't respond to my bug report and so on. I was hugely relieved when I discovered Easy Debian, and that it would run successfully the unmodified vpnc that I knew from my Linux box, and that whatever I did on the Easy Debian side, it would not screw up the phone altogether. I see that there is a new version of native vpnc from April, still in extras-devel, so I guess it is not optimally maintained yet, or is it?

@qole
I think I know a workaround on that problem... To avoid it after starting the extraction don't touch the device till it's finished. By monitoring the transfer/extraction rate the speed get's slower after you touch the device while it's doing disk IO. you could see the transfer by extracting/transferring files and opening a new xterm window and monitor by using df. And after sometime when you keep on opening the device. It reboots itself

You probably need to consult this section of the wiki.

I tried getting secured java connection (on PC desktop, it will install Hoblink JWT, so there're some additional Java applet needed) but somehow applet failed to run when Invoked via iceweasel.

Have extracted the SUN JAVA SE, but iceweasel doesn't call that package. How to redirect it ? The existing JDK that iceweasel calls doesn't work well with the Hoblink JWT.

Using Maemo's MicroB and Firefox result in no Java detected error .. worse than using iceweasel

Is there any workaround for extracting the image with power kernel 46?

I've tried both image versions but I get problems with them both and am unable to run Debian

My question was: does it work equally with wifi and phone data connections (=gprs)?

If you have a Linux PC, the easiest is to download the image, extract it with "lzma -d", and then transfer the image via USB to MyDocs.
