Haha. What's wrong with it?

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

It'll install over the top. :)

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

I started out with the version in the repository yesterday or the day before. That didn't have commenting, so obviously the problem wasn't in that version.

I then downloaded and installed the deb with dpkg -i of version 0.2 earlier today. I was unable to write comments with that version.

I then installed 0.2.2 a moment ago and I have the same problem. When I try to comment, I get "Error adding comment: 200 (The user hasn't authorized the application to perform this action)".

Relevant facts and theories:

* Maybe I should've uninstalled the repository installed version before installing the debs?
* Maybe I should remove some configuration file to reset all settings? But where is the config file? Have looked for .facebrick in my homedir and .osso/facebrick, but neither exist.
* I write in Finnish / Swedish, so I use åöä ÅÖÄ "special" characters in almost every comment.
* I wanted to try and find the app itself from within the browser version of Facebook on my desktop computer, but I see no mention of Facebrick anywhere among my other apps (Such as Facebook for Android and Facebook for iPhone when I had those devices). So it's no wonder the app isn't authorized. I haven't really got the opportunity to authorize anything: When I log out and log back on, I just get a "miniature" web login that seems to supply Facebrick with my credentials or links Facebrick to Facebook through the library... But there is no mention of actually authorizing...

Thanks for all your efforts though, this app looks very nice! Not the biggest fan of the overal Hildon / N900 UI, but you didn't come up with that, so it's not on you ;)

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

One curiosity: can you post newsfeed items? (not comments that is, the main screen..)

No, all that should be fine/unneeded (my other half is Norwegian, so the "funny characters" do get tested periodically too).

You should have a 'NokiaN900' app in there. I didn't call it FaceBrick, as at the time, I didn't have that name yet - and I wanted to bring some exposure to the great device. ;)

Thanks! (even though I quite like Hildon :P)

--

Try:
- removing the 'NokiaN900' app from your FB
- rm -r ~/.config/malang/

If this still doesn't sort you out, can you mail me with the details of this problem (viroteck@viroteck.net)? I will give you a special debug build that we can try use, and further instructions.

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

Ok, fixed the problem. Call back the cavalry!

I had never written a single status update with Facebrick yet, so when I tried to comment on someone else's status, it didn't have authorization.

When I left a random status update the first time, it asked me to authorize the app and once I had done that, commenting started working as well. Sorry to cause a fuzz.

Anyway, when commenting on someone's status, it would be very helpful to see the original status message in that view as well, so I know I didn't accidentally open some other status than the intended one.

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

That still qualifies as a bug, but I'm very happy you found it.

I'll note it down and try fix it for the next minor release.

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

Finally got it installed, looking better each release! One thing I havent mentioned yet, or have seen mentioned, is it possible to see older updates?

I think a way similar to how Tweego does it would be nice, a button somewhere at the bottom with "More" on it, click on that and it will add the previous 20 updates (or however many) to the timeline.

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

To be honest: I don't know if Facebook lets me retrieve that.

I'll look into it though :)

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

.....when I go to your link, it opens up a webpage with the following instructions:

NOTE: You should probably use the repos, unless they are having a problem, and remember - this page might be out of date.
- Download the .deb for facebrick
- Note - if you use PR1.1.1 (or are offered to open the .deb files) you don't need to go any further than this.
- sudo gainroot (note: this requires rootsh)
- dpkg -i facebrick_0.2.2_armel.deb

.....I've followed this to the letter but each time I do this, I am getting the following error (in Terminal) " Cannot access archive: No such file or directory".....??

Not sure why this is because I can plainly see the file in the 'Documents' folder after downloading the deb file....??!

Re: My Facebook client for the n900
 

Probably because when you go into terminal, you're in the folder

/home/user

And your deb file is in /home/user/MyDocs

So one way to fix this is to add

cd MyDocs

before the line where you install it with dpkg -i
