Browser gets stuck on "Updating..."
 
I've tried three connections, a reboot, and even reenabled metalayer-crawler (even though I knew that wasn't the problem), all to try and get the web browser to actually load up, all to no avail. I've no idea what went wrong- anyone else?

I've the same problem. After some days with Diablo, the browser doesn't work and I always see "Updating..."

I've tried to purge and reinstall osso-browser and it works... until I reset the n800...

go to a terminal

Code:

sudo gainroot
/etc/init.d/tablet-browser-daemon restart

happened to me too... dunno why it wasn't starting on its own.. ive since re-loaded and it works now..

what extras have u guys loaded? kde, debian, android, sofwtare..etc.. something i think has a bug with this.

I've installed whatever extras Gronmayer gives me.

Also, that command doesn't do anything. I get:

/home/user # /etc/init.d/tablet-browser.restart
/bin/sh: /home/user # /etc/init.d/tablet-browser.restart:
not found

there is a space before the restart.. not a period and you missed the word daemon

Let me try again...

... well aren't YOU a smart one.

Re: Browser gets stuck on "Updating..."
 
So it worked?

Glad I could help. Not sure how to make it start for you on bootup though.. when I had the problem I tried adding it to /etc/rc.local which normal distro's will execute on startup.. but the tablet doesn't. Someone better with the /etc/rc*.d files might be able to help you put something in there.

I never did find the cause of why the browser daemon wasn't starting on boot.. and since I rebuilt I've had no problems with it to really dig into it.

Re: Browser gets stuck on "Updating..."
 
I just checked my working tablet.. make sure you have these links:

/etc/rc0.d/K15tablet-browser-daemon -> ../init.d/tablet-browser-daemon
/etc/rc1.d/K15tablet-browser-daemon -> ../init.d/tablet-browser-daemon
/etc/rc2.d/S99tablet-browser-daemon -> ../init.d/tablet-browser-daemon
/etc/rc3.d/S99tablet-browser-daemon -> ../init.d/tablet-browser-daemon
/etc/rc4.d/S99tablet-browser-daemon -> ../init.d/tablet-browser-daemon
/etc/rc5.d/K15tablet-browser-daemon -> ../init.d/tablet-browser-daemon
/etc/rc6.d/K15tablet-browser-daemon -> ../init.d/tablet-browser-daemon

If any of those are missing try creating them as so:
Code:

sudo gainroot
ln -s ../init.d/tablet-browser-daemon /etc/rc[x].d/[K15|S99]tablet-browser-daemon

the [x] is wherever it's missing, and the K15/S99 is obviously representative of whatever is missing.

Would a reflash do it? I'll just do a backup and fix it if it will.
