install anki2 on easy-debian on your n900

------------------------------------------

Hi guys,

Since 7th of February, anki 1 does not allow to sync its state with multiple devices. Users are encouraged to upgrade to anki 2 or use the new web interface.

I don't have a data plan and cannot use the web version. It would cost too much.

How are you using anki right now?

Has anybody tried to port anki2 to n900? : I've seen this thread: http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...9&postcount=20
If not, does it work with easy-debian?
Would you recommend something else? keep anki1 and sync with dropbox or something?

Thanks in advance for your answers.

Re: Anki 2 on N900?

You can always try ankiqml with MeeCoLay libraries

Re: Anki 2 on N900?

here is what i get, even if the file is there:

Code:

$ meecolay /opt/ankiqml/usr/bin/ankiqml

/usr/bin/meecolay: exec: line 11: /opt/ankiqml/usr/bin/ankiqml: not found

First time i try meecolay, I've no clue how to solve this.
And i read here that ankiqml doesn't support sound
http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...8&postcount=79

guess i'll have to try easy-debian now....

If it doesn't work, I'll stick with nitdroid but it's not convenient to reboot the phone every time i want to use anki2

Re: Anki 2 on N900?

too many dependencies problems with easy-debian.
I used image debian-m5-v3e.img.ext2.lzma

Re: Anki 2 on N900?

Anki2 for easy-debian on n900

install easy-debian http://wiki.maemo.org/Easy_Debian#Install_instructions
sudo debian
Only if needed:
vi /etc/apt/sources.list
and rename repo "debian-multimedia.org" to "deb-multimedia.org"
:%s/debian-mult/deb-mult/g
nice -n 19 apt-get update
nice -n 19 apt-get install --no-install-recommends python-qt4 mplayer lame libportaudio2 python-sqlalchemy pulseaudio
cd /home/user
create a link to MyDocs (the database can be huge)
mkdir /home/user/MyDocs/.anki
mkdir /home/user/MyDocs/Anki
ln -s /home/user/MyDocs/.anki .anki
ln -s /home/user/MyDocs/Anki Anki
wget http://ankisrs.net/download/mirror/anki-2.0.12.tgz
tar xvzf anki-2.0.12.tgz
exit your debian-root terminal
you can run anki by launching:
debbie /home/user/anki-2.0.12/runanki

Re: Anki 2 on N900?

Almost there....

Then I tried to run the source package directly in maemo natively.

sudo apt-get install python2.5-qt4 mplayer lame libportaudio2 python-sqlalchemy
cd /home/user
ln -s /home/user/MyDocs/.anki/ .anki
wget http://ankisrs.net/download/mirror/anki-2.0.8.tgz
tar xvzf anki-2.0.8.tgz
use the attached patch (code source change to make it compatible with python 2.5)

It works too except I get one error when trying to synchronize:

Code:

Syncing failed

SSL certificate validation is not supported without the ssl module installed. To avoid this error, install the ssl module, or explicitly disable validation

python-openssl is installed.
Anyone has an idea?

My temporary solution is to run debian version to synchronize and maemo version to use and study.

Re: Anki 2 on N900?

How to install on n900
(not using easy debian)

sudo gainroot
apt-get install python2.5-qt4 mplayer lame libportaudio2 python-sqlalchemy busybox-power
cd /home/user
create a link to MyDocs (the database can be huge)
mkdir /home/user/MyDocs/.anki
mkdir /home/user/MyDocs/Anki
ln -s /home/user/MyDocs/.anki .anki
ln -s /home/user/MyDocs/Anki Anki
wget http://ankisrs.net/download/mirror/anki-2.0.8.tgz
tar xvzf anki-2.0.8.tgz
place the attached patch (source code change to make it compatible with python 2.5) in /home/user/
cd /home/user/anki-2.0.8
run
patch -p1 < ../anki.patch.txt
apt-get install libssl-dev python-dev libbluetooth3-dev gcc libc6-dev python-setuptools
easy_install pip
pip install ssl
apt-get autoremove --purge libssl-dev python-dev libbluetooth3-dev libc6-dev
run it with
/home/user/anki-2.0.8/runanki

there are still a few small minor display problems.
But the application works.

Re: Anki 2 on N900

Hi!
I dare not start installing things before I know how to. In this regard, I am not sure how to use the attached patch. Can anyone help me?
Also, thank you for your efforts to bring this very useful learning tool to the newest version. Among other things that failed to deliver due to lack of mainstream interest in this platform, Anki was the last straw, I'm seriosly considering Android if this doesn't work. :eek: I know, it's horrible, what can one do...

I added this in the previous "how to"

Re: Anki 2 on N900

I tried to download and install the newest version 2.0.22, I edit the batch for this version, but "easy_install pip" shows error (syntax error). is there anyone to help me?
