Maybe read-only filesystem or something wrong with apt-get.

Try to run apt-get install microb from the terminal.

apt-get is the program behind Application Manager

To install Microb on your Nokia 770.

You have to be online, then you need to open Application Manager.


You need to get Microb for Nokia 770.

For this

You need to add the following repository to Application Manager (you have to type this).

Web Address: http://respository.maemo.org/extras/

Distribution: Gregale

components: free

Now update Application Manager.

Once this is done you will see Microb Browser among host of other Applications ( in Application Manager ) that you can add. Now, hopefully , you can easily install it.

Is it really necessary to apply a color to all of your posts? If I want to read this forum in a color other than the one Reggie assigned, I'll go ahead and use custom CSS.

As it is, coloring everything you write on here in what closely matches the URL color is both obnoxious and rude.

Please use the ignore button. Thanks.

"Ignore" is for when you find the content offensive, not the form.

For all I know your post may be helpful or contain useful information, but as I still use the ITT "classic" skin (the one with the light blue background), I'd need to change my monitor settings or switch skins just to read your message... which I won't bother to do.

Aaahh ! ! ...Here We are..once again the great FPP condescends to chime in...back at me. Thanks..but no thanks.

I never had anything important to say here , as someone great once told me long ago ( precisely on 01-29-2007, 01:05 PM ). Yet still people are paying attention to the asinine things I say.

It is also not readable in Firefox under Linux PC...

The colors must be highly significant to Arjun to make him this obnoxious about it.
Or not.

Re: Why cant I install MicroB
 
To all the clever , great, honored people here who so gratefully commented on my usage of color , let me ask you one simple question. Where were you when " chachachazippo2 " originally asked this question on 12-17-2007, 06:21 PM ?

How come no one replied to this question till today, 12-19-2007, 05:18 PM ?

Now when someone does answer, regardless of the fact whether it is right or wrong, regardless of usage of fonts and colors etc., everyone deems it necessary to weigh in on it.

Uh, probably sleeping or something?

I don't see why you're so attached to a practice which so obviously causes pain to others when it provides zero benefit to anybody (including yourself).

I'm going to toss this one in with practices like typing in all caps or italics. There's no point to it other than to draw attention to yourself.

Re: Why cant I install MicroB
 
This action of ' tossing ' could have been done initially. My post also could have been disregarded. But did someone do it ? NO ! ! So then I do not need to say who is trying to do what.

I guess that I will put it to rest.

Rant...Rave...Yap...Bawl away....in your own personal reckless abandon.

I found the post helpful, colored or not. And I think that's the point.
