Success!!!! Thanks Penguinbait! I proceeded with using the files I downloaded last night by transfering the .deb files from my lap top to my Nokia n800. As I said in my previous post, I had downloaded the tar file late last night directly to my Nokia. When I transfered the .deb files the names got changed a bit at the end of the name, but that apparently didn't matter. File manager was giving me some weird detail that wasn't accurate during the install, but again that didn't end up mattering. I haven't tried MicroB yet, but I do notice that in KDE there are occasional white g letters that look like the screen shot of the google page I think posted earlier in this thread where the top of the g is missing. But overall it looks fine. I had no hickups with the install. I simply got the files onto the internal card without a special folder. I'm using a Transcend 8 GB SDHC interal card. I feel like if I can do this install anyone can. You just need to pay attention to the details involved. But wow, I'd say the time spent is totally worth it. Now to learn how to use it. Neil ; )
