Okay, I'll look into why it's not adding the library search path and upload a new set of packages today.

On my N900 it also failed to add /opt/usr/lib.
I added it manually and updated with ldconfig.
Works fine now.

You need to pair your N900 with the N95 and set the N900 to accept connections automatically from the N95, then, make sure Bluetooth is on from the system tray then enable bluetooth streaming in Columbus

@tswindell:

I have this problem where I run Columbus, and it runs fine... but about a minute later the program quits.

Also, I had installation problems earlier and had to append in file /etc/ld.so.conf the string "/opt/usr/lib/" before I got it working.

Is there anything you need from me to help you debug this?

After doing the ldconfig thing, version 0.9-1 starts, but it does not initialize the GPS. The GPS icon never appears in the status bar. So it never gets any location information.

When I run it from the command line I see the following messages:

ApplicationController: Loading application configuration.
ApplicationController: Attempting to start up location services.
ApplicationController: Location services started.
ApplicationController: Connecting telemetry source signals.

So it seems to think it started location services, but it did not. Other GPS apps including Nokia's map and GPSJinni work fine, as does the Qt mobility demo app and the 0.8.2 version of Columbus.
