I have just tried Debian on my Jornada and have had a few issues:

When I try to install quite a few programs (SSH, Dillo, gaim) with apt-get
it tells me it needs to install e2fsprogs, e2fslibs, libc6 and sysvinit.
However when I try to install these I get the message:

"This installation run will require temporarily removing the essential
package e2fsprogrs due to a Conflicts/Pre-Depends loop. This is often bad,
but if you really want to do it, activate the APT::Force-LoopBreak option"

Anyone tried running with the APT::Force-LoopBreak option, does it cause any
problems?

I'm also trying to install PPTP support, but can't seem to find the package
using apt-get. Anyone managed to install it? I think I also need some kernel
modules for it to work.
