Well,,,,, a bit more progress:
1) I flashed back to Nokia_770_SE2005_5_2006_13_7.bin, which worked 
fine.  Got information from my DHCP server, used that for internet 
access, allowed internet browsing
2) Flashed back to SU-18_2006SE_1.2006~PR_F5_MR0_ARM.bin, which (this 
time) had internet access through my LAN.

I have to conclude that at least some of my prior trouble was caused by 
a "bad" flash.

BUT, after installing files from the memory card, I still have the 
X Terminal failing to start.  I wonder if I should have installed 
both those curses packages:
ncurses-base_5.4-4_all.deb
libncurses5_5.4-4_armel.deb
After installing 
dropbear_0.48-0.1_armel.deb
I still do not have ssh access to the 770.

I still have not gotten the ApplicationsCatalog2006 thing to work.  
Maybe that's a cockpit error.  I go to 
ApplicationManager>Tools>ApplicationCatalog and try to select one or 
both of the "tableteer" URLs.  "New" seems to not do what I want; it 
requires me to type in a URL.  What SHOULD I be doing to get one or 
more repositories specified here?

Is there some documentation that I've failed to find?  I REALLY didn't 
expect this stuff to be so troublesome.
