If you want to try installing Thunderbird or Minimo, then do the following as well:
# su
# pango-querymodules > /etc/pango/pango.modules
# mkdir -p /etc/gtk-2.0
# gdk-pixbuf-query-loaders > /etc/gtk-2.0/gdk-pixbuf.loaders
You also need to install the following patch:
xqt-libXrender [xqt-libXrender_1.2.2_arm.ipk]
This will fix the fonts problem with Thunderbird. Without this updated library the fonts in
Thunderbird are not being displayed at all.
Debian/PocketWorkstation
You can run Debian in chroot mode so it can coexist with the existing system (Sharp ROM with
Qtopia). You will need to install X/Qt first (see above) or run it via VNC. You could also install
Debian using my pre-build debian image (see the X/Qt jumbo and PocketWorkstation section),
otherwise follow the instructions below to install Debian manually.
Debian needs to be installed on an ext2 filesystem with at least 195MB of free space. Unfortunately,
/hdd3 is vfat. You could reformat /hdd3 as an ext2 filesystem (but that is troublesome), or install
Debian to an ext2 formatted CF or SD. Alternatively, you can create a loopback filesystem on /hdd3
and format it as ext2.
Since there is space on /hdd3, creating a loopback filesystem for Debian would be the best unless
you have already filled up /hdd3 in which case you can install Debian to a SD or CF card.
You can either follow the instructions below or use the jumbo package instead.
If not using the jumbo package, here is how you create the loopback filesystem with 256MB on
/hdd3 (if you want to install OpenOffice, make it at least 512MB):
# su
# cd /hdd3
# mkdir debroot
