I have both mstardict (configured with a few working dictionaries) and fbreader installed, and mstardict is running fine in standalone mode. mstardict integration is enabled in fbreader's configuration. (This is about fbreader on the n900)

Is this supposed to work?

It won't work with the standard version of mstardict - you'll need to download my patched version from here (or apply the patch and compile it yourself).

This adds support for calibre as a network library - you'll need to edit the /usr/share/FBReader/network/calibre.xml file to remove the comment lines (<!-- and -->) and change the server address.

It also stops the popup window from appearing while expanding a collection in the tree browser.

The source code changes can be downloaded from here.

Let me know if there's any issues, otherwise I'll push it to extras-testing next week.

I've been trying to get this to work. It works in that it shows my Calibre books in hierachy "By Newest", "By Title", "By Authors", etc. But I cant actually click on book to download it. When I do nothing happens.

Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

Not off-hand, no. Unfortunately my desktop system is down at the moment, so I can't test this right now. I'll try it out as soon as I've got it back up & running though.

I am trying to setup my calibre server as a network library in FBReader.
I have removed the comment lines and changed the server address.

When opening the network library, it brings up the Calibre bit, with the "Open Catalog" link. when I click on that I get an error about being unable to open 127.0.0.1:8080.

This is on both Maemo devices, but my Laptop will open the link fine in a browser?

127.0.0.1 refers to the computer you're using at the time. So, on your Maemo device, it would be looking for a network server being run on your Maemo device.

Replace the 127.0.0.1 with the IP address of the machine you're running Calibre on. That might fix it. Keep the :8080 part. (If there's a place to change those numbers)

what happened to fbreader, it appears borked now.

navigation functions don't let me point the program to a new book, or anything for that matter!

Mine works fine. Although I have had issues in the past caused by a corrupted memory card.
On my n810 the first thing I do when fbreader acts up is hook it up via USB and persuade windows to check the disk for errors.

good luck

must have been an update since i last used it because i didn't recognise the colourful gui buttons.

regardless of how i pressed them i didn't seem to be able to get them to do anything useful, and the drop down menu lost some buttons after first use.

solved by reinstalling fbreader, can at least add books now, but still have no idea how the program is supposed to work these days....

How I can to add in FBReader on N900 my OPDS catalog? Already has looking for it in settings and in ~/.FBReader and found nothing similary. For example, I want to add http://proxy.flibusta.net/opds (biggest collection of books in Russian and some other languages).
