dantonic: it sounds like you need to check your MyDocs partition for errors.


Try
Code:
sudo fsck -fy /dev/mmcblk0p1
in the terminal.

Sorry about that. Still trying to figure it out. Well first I tried to update the easy-debian-chroot package via app manager and it said unable to install. Then I tried to uninstall it as well as uninstalling the other easy-chroot package. I installed easy-chroot without any problems but easy-debian-chroot is giving me a unable to install when I've removed both packages.

Even though it failed to install, the application icons still show up but I'm guessing its not functioning correctly because the "start" menu isn't showing up in LXDE. You know the menu that launches applications on the top (it doesn't show the 6 squared button and the graph that shows cpu usage)

andyph666: I need more information about what's going on. Please try to install easy-deb-chroot again and when it pops up the warning message with the details button, please click on Details and then it should give you a dialogue with tabs across the top. The far right one should be titled "Problems", could you tell me what that says?

The other thing to try is: close the Application Manager and then open a terminal. Type
Code:
sudo apt-get -f install
and tell me what happens.

Okay I tried it again. It doesn't give me a warning with details button. It just shows the unable to install yellow message. But I can show you what it says in the log before it fails.

Setting up easy-deb-chroot (0.9.37-2fremantle1_armel.deb)
Nothing to do; chroot not mounted!
mv: cannot rename '/home/user/xbindkeysrc.org' No such file or directory
dpkg: error processing easy-deb-chroot (--configure):
subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1
Errors were encountered while processing: easy deb-chroot
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

apt-get -f install gives me:
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed and 1 not upgraded.
1 not fully installed or removed.
And then it tries to set up easy-deb-chroot again and show the same error as above in the terminal.

Hope that helps

Reclaimed 14004 unused clusters (917766144 bytes) in 2 chains.
checked clusters: 334638
Performing changes.

andyph666: Thanks, you've found a bug in my new version. Disable Extras-testing and install the version in Extras for now, until I get a new version in place.

dantonic: Try running the fsck command repeatedly until all the errors are gone and no changes are made. Still missing space? Maybe see if a reboot works?

thanks qole. second and third time I got no errors from the check.
any idea why that happens? is there such a thing as a trash directory where deleted files get stored for the possibility of restoring them?

I've uploaded easy-deb-chroot 0.9.37-4fremantle1 to extras-devel, which fixes andyph666's install problem. Please install that one. I'll promote to testing in the morning. I'm going to bed.

Could you please include Inkscape? I have tested it and even keyboard shortcuts work. http://share.ovi.com/media/mmiicc.N9...s/mmiicc.10004

Thanks for your great work.

Qole: Thanks for the update. It installed just fine. I have a question though: When I start LXDE, the top menu dissapeared, I can now fully see the My documents icon but I can't run a program from the menu as the bar is completely gone. No CPU graph or the 6 squared button that shows a list of programs. I have to do it through terminal. Is that normal?

The fullscreen shortcut (ctrl + up) works well.
