Hi,

I have a n800 with the latest firmware, OS2007 4.2007.38-2. I tried installing simple launcher (simple-launcher_0.9.5_armel) and camera (camera_2.9-2video_armel) but got a simple "unable to install" error when I try to do so in Application Manager. It doesn't state any reason for not being able to install. I am a Linux newbie and was wondering whether someone could help. Thanks, and here is the log file:
