Apparently with 08 you have to delete the old repositories you previously downloaded and re-load them again. Anyway, you might try that and see if it works.

Yeah, I think that was my problem. I finally got it working, only to have my unit start with the no-power-up problem. It's in a box to return to buy.com right now.

I have the new unit inhouse. So I need to do this again. I can't remember which guide I used to get it working though :(

I installed the GPE suite that was for Chinook & NOT bora & that seems to work fine. I'm not exactly sure what the difference...

The installation that worked for me was from Graham Cobb :

Hope this helps some other noobies out as well.

Thanks all.

The above link appears to be dead. Hopefully, it's only temporary. Anyone have any information as to why?

(I already have GPE installed, but a co-worker who just bought an N810 told me a few minutes ago that he was unable to find GPE anywhere).

I've also found this URL, and derivatives of it to return a 404 error.

Just wondering why a package as important as the GPE Calendar is not in a more mainstream Maemo repository?

Isn't it time that more 'core' community apps made their way into maemo Extras?
