OK, tried to uninstall and reinstall. Trying to install easy-deb-chroot 0.9.12, app-manager says 'unable to install' - but there it is again on my installed programs as 0.9.12, with the same 'broken but able to update' info.

bizshop, please try this:

1. uninstall
2. reboot (unplug the power cable, completely shut down, power back up)
3. install

Perhaps, for step #3, try going to your X Terminal, gaining root, and entering:
Code:
apt-get install easy-deb-chroot
Then post your messages. That will tell us why your install is broken. Alternately, hopefully, everything will go well, and you won't have any errors to post

Something must have been wrong more deeply with my system. I tried uninstalling, reinstalling and then tried using apt-get remove and install. Then my 810 went into endless reboot. I reflashed, and now everything installed fine.

Thanks for all your help anyway.

hi @qole,

How can we play yahoo games? I think we need java package to start the game. Where can we install java package for os 2008 diablo and easy debian?
Thanks

Hi, I installed the debian turbo but can't start jar:s from command line using java -jar myapplet.jar. Also does anyone know whether the java on easy debian is fully featured. Meaning that it has AWT in it? I tried to run applet on Iceweasel but it didn't start, only a grey square where the applet were supposed to be.

Any suggestions? Thanks.

Make sure your .jar file is either on an SD card or somewhere in your home directory (so it can be "seen" by Easy Debian), and then, from a X Terminal prompt, type:

Code:
debbie java -jar /full/path/to/myapplet.jar

Java can take a really, really, REALLY long time to start on the tablet. You often just have to be very, very, VERY patient.

I tried that earlier and also at Debian chroot (without debbie there) but the result is:
Code:
java: command not found
Synaptic did have lots of java packages installed after installing the easy debian but do I need something more in order to have java-command. I only have javaws.

Thanks.

jarl:

This post suggests that you might need to run this command from the Debian chroot:

Code:
update-java-alternatives -s java-6-openjdk
