PB,
installed kde installer. Watched the progress of kde358 until it reached 316122kb then it stalled. What next?
Edit: Never mind, It restarted again after about an hour and it completed the installation as normal.. Thanks PB!

open xterm and run
df
This will show you your filesystems, run df several times and see if the filesystem is losing space.
You could also do
ps -fe | grep installer
you should see the tar process running.
Settle down !!!
I am realeasing v3 later tonight, sorry

PB, I am still running V1 of your KDE. I didn't find an answer to this elsewhere, so I'm asking here.
Is there a way to uninstall V1 of KDE then install V3? I have WAY too many things set up to do a fresh install in under 48 hours.
Thanks for this! You rock!

If you are running KDE using the three deb process
You would have to remove all the debs before installing, and then setup boot from SD
I highly reccomend installing on a fresh flash, this is the way I test, so there is the least possibility of a problem.
If thats not really working for you, be sure you backup your data before removing and installing KDE.
Just in case you have any problems.
Also, if you have a 2GB card you really need to be a fresh flash in order for it to have enough room for the install to complete. If you have a 4GB or bigger card you should be ok to clone and install without reflashing. But the KDE debs would have to be removed, including local deb cleanly, prior to cloning. Also be sure to remove them in opposite order you instsalled them.

I had multiple failures trying the bzip method and the deb method, but finally reflashed my N800, ran fsck on the flash and found many errors, which it fixed, and finally had success!
But where is a keyboard? Did I miss that discussion?
Oh, and two things not to do... don't push "right button" on whatever menu I found it on... you can't get out of it. And if the session gets locked, even if you had a password (which I could not find) you can't enter it with no keyboard!
Marvelous job of hacking, from adapting KDE to N800 to the great install deb, which is self-maintaining. Great job.
Now I just need a keyboard|
I went through all this to be able to print from the N800. I did just that with the CUPS install, but only test pages. Great progress so far.
So, who is up to re-compiling the Maemo apps to use a printer?

Menu > Utilities > kvkdb
If you want to have it start at boot, start kvkbd and save your session

I was right... that I missed something. See
http://www.internettablettalk.com/fo...ad.php?t=20317
for the N800 keyboard info.
The only thing bad about answering your own question is that there's no one to thank....
But thanks, PenguinBait! You are remarkably talented and thorough.

It would run the same. and it would still switch back to hildon if you logout of KDE. It would be the same, you just wouldnt have to start in hildon.
