Mine still doesn't work after a uninstall re-install....

Re: [Announce] FaceBrick: Facebook client for Maemo with a rich UI
 

If you look for new updates under installing apps, you should (hopefully) get the update, but yes reinstalling FaceBrick would give you the updated version as well.

@ contro: do you still get the same error?

Re: [Announce] FaceBrick: Facebook client for Maemo with a rich UI
 

After a uninstall and a reinstall I received this error: http://web2.twitpic.com/img/16937695...22618-full.png

I went on facebook to see if Facebrick is listed in my applications permission list and it's not there as well.

Any Ideas?

*reactivates facebook account*
*Installs facebrick, opens app*
Facebrick is working again, signed in and it showed my news feed :)
*realizes facebook is meh, deactivates again*

Re: [Announce] FaceBrick: Facebook client for Maemo with a rich UI
 

Did FaceBrick prompt you to login when you started it?

Re: [Announce] FaceBrick: Facebook client for Maemo with a rich UI
 

No it did not.

Re: [Announce] FaceBrick: Facebook client for Maemo with a rich UI
 

Could you try clicking the title bar, logging out and then restarting it?

Re: [Announce] FaceBrick: Facebook client for Maemo with a rich UI
 

Gonna try this right now.

Your solution works you have to be quick to click on the title bar though because it disappears so fast.

I logged out and re-entered my credentials and it works successfully.

Thanks Brik!

Re: [Announce] FaceBrick: Facebook client for Maemo with a rich UI
 

i was prompted for something when i first ran it, but it was all in a foreign language, so i've no idea what it was wanting....

anyway to get english?

Re: [Announce] FaceBrick: Facebook client for Maemo with a rich UI
 

Could you take a screenshot of it (CTRL + SHIFT + P)?

Re: [Announce] FaceBrick: Facebook client for Maemo with a rich UI
 

Great that Facebrick is back! I would love to see an update including the widget that was worked on this summer :)

Keep up the good work!

Re: [Announce] FaceBrick: Facebook client for Maemo with a rich UI
 

another facebook widget would be great, the default one doesnt even show the entire status, it cuts off after a couple lines!

Re: [Announce] FaceBrick: Facebook client for Maemo with a rich UI
 

I reinstalled FaceBrick but i still get this when i try to logon:
Error loading newsfeed 5: (unathourized ip adress)
Could this fix be included in an updated FaceBrick deb?

I tried to update with the new facebook lib but there was a conflict

Anything else i can try?

Re: [Announce] FaceBrick: Facebook client for Maemo with a rich UI
 

hrmm im getting the same problem aswell

lets hope there is a solution soon =]

Re: [Announce] FaceBrick: Facebook client for Maemo with a rich UI
 

i can actually log in, but i CANT autologin

if anyone knows how to fix this please help :P

Re: [Announce] FaceBrick: Facebook client for Maemo with a rich UI
 

My facebrick has suddenly gone a bollock.

i open it, i get the login screen which i usually tap above, it then just pops up for a second then closes... any ideas??

tried reinstalling but no joy. :(

Re: [Announce] FaceBrick: Facebook client for Maemo with a rich UI
 

I don't think this is Facebrick's problem unfortunately, so I'm not sure what I can do. We can't request any specific language, we just ask Facebook to display the login page. My guess is that they show a language based on the country they think your IP comes from.

Re: [Announce] FaceBrick: Facebook client for Maemo with a rich UI
 

Have you tried logging out and logging back in again (click the title bar -> log out)? Since you have reinstalled it, you should have the latest libqfacebook library already.

Re: [Announce] FaceBrick: Facebook client for Maemo with a rich UI
 

is this the *only* way to login to facebook? i'm wondering how the built-in facebook widget does logins to pull status updates, and also how the iphone facebook app does it. these apps don't go through a web page login.

Re: [Announce] FaceBrick: Facebook client for Maemo with a rich UI
 

You can tap above the login box or wait for it to disappear and it should be fine, but note that Facebook will require you to login again if you haven't been online in the past 24 hours.

See http://github.com/rburchell/facebrick/issues#issue/4issues for the reason why the login dialogue pops up every time you load Facebrick.

Re: [Announce] FaceBrick: Facebook client for Maemo with a rich UI
 

What closes, the login dialogue or the main window (Facebrick itself)?

Re: [Announce] FaceBrick: Facebook client for Maemo with a rich UI
 

Yes,no luck

Is libqfacebook 0.1.3-2 important for this to work?
I have 0.1.2 installed
http://maemo.org/packages/view/libqfacebook/
I've tried to install this but it conflicts with the installed one,incompatible package

I've removed all facebook related stuff in FAM
Is it possible to remove 0.1.2 and then try to install the new deb?

Re: [Announce] FaceBrick: Facebook client for Maemo with a rich UI
 

It's the recommended way of doing it. Given that both the inbuilt and iphone's facebook app are closed source, I don't know how they do it.

Re: [Announce] FaceBrick: Facebook client for Maemo with a rich UI
 

i see. well, it's quite annoying for facebook to change the language on the login page based on its own internal logic. that's why i was asking this question. thankfully, it is a one-time event.

keep up the good work!

Re: [Announce] FaceBrick: Facebook client for Maemo with a rich UI
 

i just installed this. some of my friends have slightly longer posts or have a post with a video that has a long description. when this happens, their post or the description overflows into the next one and the text overlaps one another making it difficult to read. this happens in portrait mode.

Re: [Announce] FaceBrick: Facebook client for Maemo with a rich UI
 

oh and btw, the facebook login page appeared in english for me. odd too. i recall it was in my home country's native language when i first tried facebrick a few versions ago.

Re: [Announce] FaceBrick: Facebook client for Maemo with a rich UI
 

hmmmmmm the problem with portrait mode doesn't occur if i close down facebrick and launch it again. it now becomes a different problem. the gap between the post with the long text and the next post now becomes bigger. there is quite a bit of whitespace in between.

if i then go into settings and play with the font size slider, the first problem occurs again (text overlapping) - this happens even if i slide the control back and forth and then leave it back at where it was before.

Re: [Announce] FaceBrick: Facebook client for Maemo with a rich UI
 

also, can you save the username + password?

and btw, the first time i ran facebrick, i saw the login page from facebook for applications.

now on subsequent runs, i see a different login page. one where it shows "Email or Phone:" as the login name. is it supposed to behave this way?

there is a link at the lower right corner of this login page with "Full site" and when i click on it (ok, maybe by accident:)), your facebrick application gets bypassed and i get a browser view of facebook inside your popup login window.

Re: [Announce] FaceBrick: Facebook client for Maemo with a rich UI
 

i keep getting this when i log in or try to post anything..

help?

Re: [Announce] FaceBrick: Facebook client for Maemo with a rich UI
 

the dialogue closes, facebrick opens. then disapears...

but... its working again now... how odd....

Re: [Announce] FaceBrick: Facebook client for Maemo with a rich UI
 

Yes, you do need 0.1.3-2 for it to work, this is the updated package with the fix.

Could you give me the actual error message you get when trying to install the updated package? How are you trying to install it?

Re: [Announce] FaceBrick: Facebook client for Maemo with a rich UI
 

You need to update Facebrick to get it working.

Re: [Announce] FaceBrick: Facebook client for Maemo with a rich UI
 

I have downloaded libqfacebook_0.1.3-2_armel and started HAM from it.
HAM reports it's a 0 Kb and that it's incompaitible with the installed one.
I dont know how to find and delete the old one.
I also tried: dpkg -i libqfacebook_0.1.3-2_armel after sudo in terminal

Where is the already installed libq located?

Sorry for beeing a noob,i just dont know how to get this going :(

Re: [Announce] FaceBrick: Facebook client for Maemo with a rich UI
 

Have you tried making sure you have extras-devel enabled and updating it from the normal App manager instead of downloading debs separately?

If you install Facebrick through the App manager, then you should get the latest version of both Facebrick and libqfacebook..

Re: [Announce] FaceBrick: Facebook client for Maemo with a rich UI
 

Extras-devel is enabled and i can find Facebrick version 0.5
Is that the most recent version?
Reimstalled it but still get "unauthorized ipadress"
Could it be Python or QT related? A missing package or something

Damn,miss the "via Nokia N900" that Facebrick shows :(

Re: [Announce] FaceBrick: Facebook client for Maemo with a rich UI
 

v0.6 released!

This release contains the Desktop Widget I worked on during GSOC this summer. It has taken a while, but real life and facebook problems got in the way a bit :-)

This is a desktop widget which can be added to or removed from your desktop like any other homescreen widget. You can scroll through the posts by using the up and down arrow buttons, and refresh to get the lastest posts.

Clicking a post will open the full Facebrick app, which can also be accessed from the menu as before.

Re: [Announce] FaceBrick: Facebook client for Maemo with a rich UI
 

Great to see Facebrick is back! Many thanks! Takk!

But... (isn't there always a "But..."?)

After upgrading and rebooting, my N900 got stuck with the facebrick start-up thing (bar with "log in to facebook" on an otherwise black sceen). Only way to get out was to ssh to the N900 and manually kill the "/opt/facebrick/facebrick -plugin-id FaceBrickDesktop." process.

After that, rebooting the second time, there is no lock-up and no Facebrick process.

When start the facebrick app, I get the usual "Error loading newsfeed: 5 (Unauthorized source IP address).

Re: [Announce] FaceBrick: Facebook client for Maemo with a rich UI
 

well iv just downloaded the facebrick 0.6... so im assuming thats the newest
i still get the same problem... IPaddress..

do i need the pyqt 4.7.5 installed aswell??? i havnt updated this yet.. is this a possible of the problem?

EDIT:
okay so iv jus installed pyqt 4.7.5 and uninstalled then re-installed facebrick 0.6
and it still no works..

..am i doing something wrong?

Re: [Announce] FaceBrick: Facebook client for Maemo with a rich UI
 

Same here - any ideas how to fix this?
