What's the purpose of this page's content wrt http://wiki.debian.org/DebianOnFreeRunner ? Which one should be modified in priority ? -- OlivierBerger 10:57, 31 August 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Blank password issue (removed)
I removed this part. If someone still has this problem with debian please insert it again on Wiki
If entering a blank password does not work at first, try rebooting. If still no success, boot to 2008.08/2007.02, chroot to the micro SD card and set a new password.
[edit] X as normal user (removed)
I think is a good idea to remove this: now /etc/init.d/nodm is used as config file, so it doesn't need more to be diverted.
2. Edit /etc/init.d/nodm and change USER=root to USER=username in it. Then to make sure changes are not lost on upgrade, run dpkg-divert --add /etc/init.d/nodm This will make new versions of /etc/init.d/nodm be written to /etc/init.d/nodm.distrib
[edit] Simulating right click with stylus
[edit] With Xglamo driver from xserver-xglamo
It seems this does not work when using LXDE + xserver-xglamo. Could anyone confirm?
Answer: I confirm, also does not work when using XFCE + Xserver-xglamo and fddev (Debian installed 27.02.2009).
Answer2: On my fresh install it works with the original xserver-xorg-input-tslib and fddev. I just added the line in the xorg.conf. (06.03.2009)
[edit] Flashing Debian
