Hey.
I have a problem with starting enlightenment. Unfortunately I do not know
what caused it to stop working. I shut down the phone one day and everything
was seemingly working. Then two days later I wanted to play with the
openmoko again and booted up, but it stopped in text-mode.
With some help from IRC, I figured it is enlightenment not starting.
Enlightenment seemingly can't find it's prefix directory. Setting the
environment-variable E_PREFIX to "/usr" (which is the hard-coded default
anyway), it gives a clue. It is looking for the file
/usr/share/enlightenment/data/themes/default.edj, which does not exist. But
this is strange, as it didn't exist on the jffs2 flash image either.
I thought something had gone wrong with enlightenment, so I decided to
reinstall e-wm by using opkg e-wm remove. This was not possible without
removing most of the installed software on the phone, so I decided to ignore
its dependencies by using:
$ opkg remove e-wm -force-depends
Then I wanted to installed it again from repository:
$ opkg install e-wm
Installing e-wm (0.16.999.050+svnr37988-r0.1) to root...
Collected errors:
* ERROR: Package e-wm (parent e-wm) is not available from any configured
src.
* Failed to download e-wm. Perhaps you need to run 'opkg update'?
What is this message actually saying? Apparently it does find the e-wm
package in the repository (as it's able to find its versioning numbers), but
then reports e-wm not available? How do I install this package?

I might have made things worse by actually copying the raw files from the
flash image onto the phone:
scp /mnt/jffs2/usr/bin/enlightenment* root at 192.168.0.202:/usr/bin
scp -r /mnt/jffs2/usr/lib/enlightenment/* root at 192.168.0.202:
/usr/lib/enlightenment
... etc...
But at least this brought me back to where I started (except enlightenment
is installed, but not in opkgs' database). It is still looking for this
nonexisting file. I also tried to remove ~/.e/ directory, with no luck.
After starting X, the /tmp/x.log file looks like this:

waiting for X server to shut down FreeFontPath: FPE "built-ins" refcount is
2, should be 1; fixing.

How to solve this? Any clues? A fresh reflash will probably solve the issue,
but that means I would have to spend quite some time installing my software
and stuff over again, and I will probably learn very little from it.
Thanks for any help. I'll try to be patient enought not to reflash it
immediately. :)
