I've used debian and it worked, although screen locking was not implemented yet and most of the functionality is placed in an applet which is not at all finger friendly, but ok.
I did an update (apt-get update, apt-get dist-upgrade) and that destroyed my xsession configuration and left me with only a terminal. That is when I decided to try switching back to the main stream and try to at least start using it as a phone. In doing that I was so disappointed by it that I couldn't help but start this thread. As most have pointed out, I'll probably be heading back because this is what freedom is all about (as soon as the next FSO milestone is reached I'll probably give it another try). Thank you for your reply.
