FYI, if you try using this and maemo-spellcheck at the same time, Microb loads very slowly.

Got it installed and working, subscribed to EasyList. The ability to block ads is a beautiful thing, especially when on a cellular connection. However, it does make the browser noticeably slower and less responsive. Hopefully this can be fixed in a later release.

I get the following error when I try to reinstall greasemonkey, after uninstalling it to install adblock:

application packages missing: libhildonmime0 (>=1.10.1)

Had it installed and working, but... Found the performance hit in the browser unacceptable. Mostly in simple things like scrolling. Especially using the d pad. Back to using my hosts file for now but looking forward to future releases.

Excellent extension. One we've been waiting for a long time. Excellent work chaps.

I'm actually going back to Privoxy only. There's a perfomance hit with this like no other.

I get the same problem, latest version I could find is 1.10.0-1 in the repos. A typo in the dependencies perhaps?

Ever tryed to disable the adblock icon in the lower right corner?
I've got the feeling after disabling the scrolling is much better.

But currently I don't know how to get it back. :D

edit: I should read the announcement more carfully! :)
chrome://adblockplus/content/config.html

edit2: Yes, scrolling is much faster without the icon!

Try going to the browsers drop down menu > Tools > Components, and see if the Adblock Plus box is checked.

Incidently, this may be a better way to enable/disable this service.

Re: Adblock Plus for MicroB released!
 
Thanks for the hint!
But for enabling/disabling the whole service I have to restart the browser.

edit: It doesn't work for me. The icon only disappears using the preferences window chrome://adblockplus/content/config.html .

Re: Adblock Plus for MicroB released!
 
Hello,
I could not install AdBlock Plus (which I use on Firefox) on the n810. I got this message:

Installing adblock-plus-webaddon 0.0.1-1
Failed to fetch http://browser-extras.garage.maemo.o...0.1-1_all.deb: Could not open file /media/mmc2/.apt-archive-cache/partial/adblock-plus-webaddon_0.0.1-1_all.deb - open (30 Read-only file system)
W: Not using locking for read only lock file /media/mmc2/.apt-archive-cache/lock
W: Not using locking for read only lock file /media/mmc2/.apt-archive-cache/lock
file:///media/mmc2/tmp/Adblock%20log.txt: Read only file system

I do not have greasemonkey installed.

It is just a mistery, I cannot figur out what is wrong. Could it be linked to the blocked/corrupted internal memory?

Thanks,
Antonio
