I've been playing around with Debian on the FR and figured I would report my experiences.
Unfortunately I'm working with the 512mb SD card that came with my FR (install.sh had trouble partitioning my 4gb SDHC) so I haven't been able to install too many aps I was able to install fluxbox (a lightweight window manager). It works well, but you need to remember to start the matchbox keyboard and an xterm window with the .fluxbox/startup file. (fluxbox's menu is usually accessed with a right click) Icons can be added to the desktop easily by installing fbdesk. I also installed WICD to handle wireless networking. It's a python app that doesn't rely on GNOME or KDE (but does use GTK) http://wicd.sourceforge.net I haven't tested it extensively yet but it looks promising (make sure you already have wpa_supplicant, wirelesstools, etc installed) using Debian made all of this a breeze, can't wait to get my 4gb card working... _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
