Re: GPE for OS2008

Does GPE Todo crash for everyone when trying to make a new category?

The category function is neat and without it I'll just stick to simple .txt's for my to-do list.

Re: GPE for OS2008

Nope, I had not. I tried it, tho, and the same problem came up. :confused: But thanks for the suggestion . . .

With the latest release of GPE (available on Graham Cobb's repository), the category crash bug has been solved (finally!). It may be worthwhile to update all the GPE packages, in order to take advantage of the bug-free categories :)

Re: GPE for OS2008

Got it working . . . I uninstalled ALL of the repositories from the app manager, then clicked on the links to install the app, and it automatically added the repositories it needed. No idea why this worked; maybe there was some conflict among duplicate repository entries?

Anyway, it's now looking good! Thanks all.

It has been reported in the bugzilla but I have not been able to reproduce it. Is it reproducible for you?

Do you have a particularly large number of events or alarms?

Would you be willing to send me your database to try to reproduce the problem? I realise, of course, that the data is confidential. Please send me a private message if you are willing to send it to me and I will let you know what file(s) I need.

Re: GPE for OS2008

I had the same "application package missing" problem here, would be grateful for a solution. GPE's great, cant wait to try it.

EDIT: fixed now

Sorry if the info is not that detailed.. I don't have it installed at this moment.

Nevertheless, in order to make it happen you need to close first some panel which lives in the right side. (Was it a summary, event viewer, or something?) Then push the buttons for the different views (i.e. day, week, etc).

BTW, The number of events/alarms is irrelevant..

If you still don't manage to reproduce it because of my crappy explanation, let me know. I'll install it and will give you exact steps.

Hope it helps.

Re: GPE for OS2008

Saturn, thanks. The key piece of information was to disable the sidebar view. I can now reproduce the problem. It does not seem to happen if the sidebar is present.

I have raised the priority of the relevant bug in the GPE bugzilla: http://bugs.linuxtogo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=70

Re: GPE for OS2008

Are there efforts to migrate GPE to the regular maemo repos?
