N900 Digg.com desktop widget broke?
 

just installed a Digg.com widget for my N900 from the freemantle extras-devel repo.

However, no Digg widget show up as an option to add to my desktop.

has anyone been able to get this widget on their device?

Have you rebooted the device after the install? It usually does the trick!

Re: N900 Digg.com desktop widget broke?
 

Yep. Dozens of reboots since initial install. No joy.
:(

Woah, I just fixed a python glade2 dependency conflict in gpodder today and after my next reboot, the Digg widget is showing up again!

Happy day!

My digg widget is not displaying any feeds? It's been like this for 2days now, and i've not installled anything new on my phone in months?

Anyone have this problem?

Re: N900 Digg.com desktop widget broke?
 

Same here. This happened before a few months ago but it eventually fixed itself.

Probably something happening over on digg.com. I don't know what API is used by the home widget to pull the digg headlines, but it appears vulnerable to changes on the web site's side...

Re: N900 Digg.com desktop widget broke?
 

Just noticed that digg.com has a new layout. The associated changes under the hood are probably what has killed the digg home widget.

Bug submitted, please vote for it!

Same here, It crapped out hildon-home. Had to close it and re-load all my widgets.

Re: N900 Digg.com desktop widget broke?
 

it would be good if this widget had a more user friendly design. like the style of the calender, datamonitor widget, rss feed widget, location widget. Also the option to change the transparency or make the widget more customisable would also be good.

Re: N900 Digg.com desktop widget broke?
 

Just got my feed back. If you're widget is still blank, try removing and re-adding it to your desktop.

Big thanks to Juhana !!!

Re: N900 Digg.com desktop widget broke?
 

...And now the headlines aren't updating again.

It's enough to drive one mad.

Anyone else wanna chime in on their widget's update status?

Re: N900 Digg.com desktop widget broke?
 

just installed the 0.3.0-2 updated widget but I don't see any improvement with headlines.

But with all the problems that digg.com version 4 is causing the main site and it's users, I'm not really shocked that the widget is having problems.
