Do any of the WebOS apps work? Or is it not worth risking the installations?

What about the other unsupported games? Or best to wait until they are on the next update?

Are the other unsupported games supported by the WebOS Games Manager App? - no, but other games are supported by Preenv if that's what you mean.

I updated the angry birds seasons to match the newest St. Patrick's day update. It only has a new picture and description so there is no reason for any normal user to update their files, I just thought it would be nice to have proper description for the newest update in next update of the program. This doesn't repair the problem of not being able to install both normal and seasons versions at the same time. It is caused by the fact that both have just "Angry Birds" written as a title in the appinfo.json file in the .ipk (the manager makes the games data folders by that info I think).

Thanks to the exact explanation why it can not install both versions. As for sessons I immediately installed version 1.3.0 ipk and its regular, and play, as you say, this is just an image of the installation, a shortcut is a regular of St.Patrick
sorry for language I using GT.

Hello, I created the files to add to the list of supported games "FIFA 10" ...

Extract the archive and copy the folder "fifa10" in MyDocs

Open X terminal:

Code:

root

cp /home/user/Mydocs/fifa10/ini/* /usr/share/wgames/gamesinfo/ini

cp /home/user/Mydocs/fifa10/images/* /usr/share/wgames/gamesinfo/images

cp /home/user/Mydocs/fifa10/hacks/* /usr/share/wgames/gamesinfo/hacks

I've kept it running for aprox 30 min and after 5min it stops using considerable resources and i've cancelled the installation and tried over again with other versions.

I have not experienced that i cannot delete directories.

Is there a way i can see whats going on in xterm and I could post the output here?

Thanks

you can delete the directories with midnight commander

Does anyone have any news on the bug which means installation of an ipk never goes passed step 4? Left one going overnight last night and still on step 4 in the morning. Is it a case of going back to previous version, and if so does anyone have a link to that?

I had the same problem with Driver - left it running overnight and it did not install. When I selected cancel installation it appeared to have installed ok ( the yellow message screen came up with controller info ) however when I selected play it would not start.

Regarding the WebOS App Manager - there is no way to add working games to this until a new version comes out under Download Manager is there?
