Just enable devel and install it. Enabling devel doesn't make your device unstable

I know that but I don't want to risk updating all the apps to devel lol.

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 
Ok I just installed it and will keep posting my comments in this thread as I notice things. For now, I suppose there should be a better UI for logging in. The current log-in page feels "out of the application" and the password field doesn't show characters as you type so you don't know what you are typing.

I tried logging in and it said "Error loading news feed: 5 (unauthorized source IP)" (EDIT: Its working now. I think I entered the wrong password because I couldn't see what I was typing)

Another suggestion: I suppose right now the application only has the ability to look at status updates and comment on them. Right? Instead of showing the thread of the original post and the comments like a conversation, wouldn't it look better if the original post was somehow formatted differently from the comments?

It doesn't auto update. You can ignore the updates

I tried to post a comment and it says "The user hasn't authorized the application to perform this action."

Try setting your status with Facebrick first. This triggers it to ask for authority. Once I had done this, I could comment freely.

Cheers,
Mark.

Hi there,

No. I used to distribute debs seperately of extras-devel, but this was bad for a number of reasons, so I don't wish to keep doing it.

It will be out of extras-devel at some point in the future obviously. I don't have a timeline for when, as it largely depends on how long the work takes - and how long I have available to work on it. Considering I have brik helping out as well, though, it won't be as long. :)

I too can confirm this bug. This kind of makes the application useless for me for the moment. Hopefully it will get fixed soon.

I've had a busy week, as I've been travelling, but I'll try to look into this tomorrow.

Regardless: another minor release will be coming soon, with the new feature of being able to configure font size, as well as faster loading of user avatars and images.
