There's web inspector on tap and hold :D

It keeps surprising me the pictures don't load. I expect pictures, like in Opera's Speeddial and Coverflow. I think users would like to see the picture of the page as it looks when they load it.

I know you're busy, but I was wondering when you were going to release a new webkit. I noticed that they're not calling the download object WebDownload, they're just calling it Download. And I'm sure you already know about the missing encoding calls. Maybe updating webkit would be a nice break from the other Tear stuff. :)

Just wanted to say thanks for all the hard work. I love tear, and am using it full time.

I knew based on where I got it from there were certian risks, if I was uncomfortable with that I wouldn't have installed it. All linux distributions (as far as I can tell) have associated main repositories and all have the ability to add other 3rd party repositories. Such is the openness of linux. Why should I expect maemo to be any different?

You can't be sure of the repos in that part of town. The server rooms are dimly lit and the javascript is suspicious-looking.

How about the waitresses? Skanky looking?

The tablet is too underpowered to make thumbs of every site on its load. Though I will probably try it at some point. I was thinking more like to place favicons there.

The patch they incorporated is libsoup 2.4 only. That happened about the same time they dropped CURL in favour of libsoup. And that is stopping me from going this way for now. After 0.3, I'll make the update to newer WebKit, there's already a feature request for that on Tear's tracker.

Bundyo, i noticed, that chromium as well as chrome has no problem with any forums or maemo wiki. Could you have a look at it? ;)

Another benefit of this method is automatic alerts when Bundyo updates things (and I update my repository).

Qole's repository:
Web address: http://qole.maemobox.org/repository
Distribution: maemo
Components: main

http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3537/...318120b5_o.png

When I fill in this, and click on OK, the app manager says 'Enter web address first' while I already filled in this.
And I cannot connect to the web address as well.

Is there another way to add tjhis repo ?
