Re: Hildon desktop def file

Thanks Wikiwide and Halftux. You've pointed me in the right direction, I think. I still have to go through a bunch of other Hildon directories, but there's lots to investigate.

Re: Calibre on Easy Debian

The name of the python script for the reader is ebook-reader (located in /usr/bin on my Ubuntu system). You may want to take a look and see if you can just get that particular script running if a...

Re: Calibre on Easy Debian

Quick question:

Have you actually tried to run Calibre on, say, a 7 inch netbook? Or anything with 800x480 resolution? It's pretty painful. Now add to that pain, running it from an SD card. ...

OpenOffice in Easy Debian works, but its startup is reallyslow, at least on my N800.

Re: Evernote has ended IMAP development.

I use Evernote with IMAP support fine. What the announcement says (so far, anyway) is that development has stopped, not the actual service. Current settings should work fine.
