[maemo-users] [maemo-users] Some Newbie Questions

[From: Amichai Rotman]

Hello All.

I am using the Nokia 770 for a month or so now, and I have to say -
generally - I am pleased.

It is nice to see so many good-hearted people working so hard to make the
GNU/Linux OS be the best OS ever!
So - to all the coders / developers / whatever out there - A BIG THANKS!!!

Sadly, I am not a coder, have nothing to do with software development
although I would have lied to (believe me - I've tried), so I cannot
contribute too much to the mix, except being a happy and satisfied user.

This is getting a bit off-topic - so I'll get to the matter at hand:

I have successfully gained root, but I cannot seem to be able to add the
Install path (/var/lib/install/usr/bin) to the user / root .profile file. I
have to cd all the way and then run the commands.

I would also like to organize the menu structure a little bit different from
the default 'extras' sub-menu.

Is it possible to add icons to the 'Desktop' (home) like a Desktop sub
directory under /home/user and a bunch of links there? (like on my standard
Ubuntu desktop PC)?

I tried following the instructions for basic customizations and I ended up
screwing up the OS and had to re-flash (for the 3rd time...). Is there an
easy-to-follow (a.k.a HOWTO) to do this? Maybe a GUI app in Java for the PC?

Thanks a lot,
