if anyone else knows too, then you are more than welcome to answer!
I installed gcc few weeks ago using command line:

Code:
apt-get update
apt-get install build-essential

I have 2 problems:

1- after upgrade to PR1.2 can't use keyboard again after switching between the phone and Easy Debian.

2- the menu bar (which contains the reboot/logout/shutdown, etc options) is gone. I don't know how to get it back.

Hi!!

pingu: I've done it just like rebhana said.

qole: Thanks for the help! I know about Java on the Maemo 5 (J2SE) but i rather compile and run Java apps on a compiler like netbeans. I tried installing netbeans/eclipse on Easy Debian but without success. I don't want to do all that compiling and running on the terminal . Has anyone tried to install these programs on Easy Debian?

Regards,

hi all... quick update from a public wifi access point.

PR 1.2 keyboard fix:

edit (sudo leafpad) /usr/share/applications/hildon/lxdefocus.desktop

and change the Exec line to read:

Exec=osso-xterm 'debbie xephfocus'

And yes you might need to fix the xephfocus script to fix the Info problem. Can you explain how to do that, rebhana?

Gotta go! Bye!

It works! qole - you are phantastic!

Instructions for non-English environments with reconfigured locales:

After the above fix of lxdefocus.desktop, which you have to do from the standard XTerminal (or through ssh), open the Debian chroot terminal and edit (with leafpad, vi, oder whatever) the file /usr/bin/xephfocus such that the "zenity" line includes a title option and reads
Code:
zenity --display=:0 --info --title="Information" --text="This window is needed to gain keyboard focus in LXDE. Click OK." &
(A string "trl -l" at the end of that line can be deleted - presumably a debugging leftover which produces an error that is harmless however.) Without the above title option, lxdefocus won't work in languages other than da, de, en, fr, and sv.

EDIT: I've now updated the wiki to include the PR1.2 keyboard fix until a new version of easy-deb-chroot will take care of that.

For 1., apply qole's fix above; for 2., you can follow the instructions in the wiki http://wiki.maemo.org/Easy_Debian, but this does not restore the cute Maemo-like icon. Since /home/user/.config/lxpanel/LXDE/panels/top is included in the easy-deb-chroot package, you could probably just de-install and then re-install the easy-deb-chroot package. The Debian image wouldn't be affected by that. You might just have to redo your edits of .chroot, if you have done some.

Thank you for the quick solution to the keyboard focus problem.
I tried to use it, but I did not manage to make it working.
I edited the file as suggested, then I opened easy debian, then ctrl back to go to maemo. I run the fix lxde keyboard script from inside maemo. I went back to easy debian, but the keyboard was not working. I think I am missing something ...
Thank you in advance!

Quite amusingly, if you try to make it work while opening this precise thread open in background, it will fail
Because wmctrl finds two windows whose name starts with "Easy Debian", the lxde one and the microb window showing this thread...

So don't forget closing it!

That explains why in the past this did not always work!

A simple way to fix it is to also change the "export PARWIN" line in /usr/bin/xephfocus to read
Code:
export PARWIN=`wmctrl -l | grep -i "N/A $WMNAME" | awk '{print $1}'`
