This is a bug from the 2.8 release. It happened on the ITOS 2007 version so I had avoided the most recent one BUT now ITOS 2008 forced the upgrade. I suggest submitting a bug, apparently they are seeing multiple bug entries for the GPE suite so perhaps this stuff will be worked out soon.
A bug report has already been opened for the categories issue.
It looks like it's finally fixed in the repository, but still no package available with this fix.
I'm going to flash back, too, in order to use his python apps on my N800 ... Just to say how much I like that 'scripts'...
I'm on an N810, transitioning from a series of Palms.
Do you use Gene's calendar alarms? If so, does the calendar app
have to be running for the alarm to go off?
GPE Calendar and the Garnet Palm VM both have to be running.
If I close the program, intentionally or otherwise, I get no alarms.
Not to mention that the sound sometimes doesn't work in Garnet...
Same question for anyone who might be running Kontact under KDE.
My life ceases to happen when it should, without my alarms.

No. Gene has written a thingo that uses the Nokia's alarm app, which doesn't need the calendar script to be running. I tested same and it works. Because it uses the alarm app, you have some control over volume and sound.
Snooze works as per the settings in control panel for the alarm.
I have had an alarm for the previous day, that had already been sounded, come up after a reboot, same as GPE has done.
The first URL is a repository - you add it to your application manager then you can get the programs in it. The 2nd (gronmayer) is a way to add the repository with a click.
The scripts are a calendar and to-do application, plus he also has a simple database for keeping information in.
I find them nicer than the GPE equivalents - better user interface, nicer to use. But they are 2007 only.

Installed Info on tap and Calendar on my 800 (2007OS) they say the are installed and they showed up on my extras menu but when I click on them nothing happens. I installed all the files listed including icalendar, dateutil. Is there another program that needs to be installed to make these work? I have python.2.5 runtime as well. Thanks.

No idea. I suggest you email Gene at gene.cash@gmail.com and ask him. I'm just a happy user.
Did you install from app manager, or from the debs? If you did it from the debs, I suggest you add the repository to app manager and do it that way. And you are using 2007, right?

Uninstalled and then re-installed using fresh libraries and now they work
