Re: [Canola] Canola2-B8 Stopped working with error

I added around 500 photos and half a dozen podcasts, and got the "out of space" error again, in spite of the fact that I've got over 40MB free.

Re: [Canola] Canola2-B8 Stopped working with error

Uninstall, reboot, reinstall: same error.

rm -r .canola

and it started up. Now I've probably blown it for any chance of debugging it, huh? ;)

I'm running beta 11 on Diablo (5.2008.43-7) on my N800. I've had a couple issues that mostly went back to my internal flash being full, but I've made plenty of space and everything seems to be...

Re: Having serious problems installing Canola2 on my Nokia N810

I had this problem not only with Canola 2, but also Garnet VM. Upgrading to Diablo (http://tablets-dev.nokia.com/nokia_770.php) fixed the missing libraries.

Re: Audible.com books playable on N800?

Has anyone tested the Palm player with Garnet VM beta 2? I'd like to get an Audible account, but only if I can find an easy way to play books on my N800. Can the books be downloaded directly to the...

Thanks -- and so far, so good, it's not struck again. Hopefully this is an infrequent condition!

Re: Podcasts stopped downloading after B9

Hi Marcelo,

No, it's an N800, and I store my media files on my removable 2 gig card (the internal 2 gig card is full of maps and other stuff).

Re: nokia tablet, do you use a bluetooth keyboard?

iGo BT Stowaway. Great tool, as long as you install the OS2008 patch to prevent the key bounce. Use it for those lengthy emails, notes, or forum entries. Also use it as a keyboard for SSH sessions...

Yeah, maybe so, but they're not THE original interactive fiction granddaddy of all modern computer games... Even Zork, which was pretty cool, wasn't Crowther's original Advent.

Re: Adventure game?

No need -- several versions of the source are available in C. It should work fine in an Xterm. Anyone care to port one?
