Not sure what’s wrong there. Once you get ssh to work, you should run
frameworkd and zhone from the command line to check the error messages.

Now that’s strange, it works for me and I have not heard from others
having problems. Is your /etc/network/interfaces file ok?

Should be, but if you install gdm, make sure you remove zhone-session
(well, it should conflict anyways)

This is just the key lock featuer. Press them in order to unlock the
phone.
