I have been trying to install new apps on my new 770
but sometimes I get message:
unable to install missing components

under details it says: missing
Libglade 2-0 1.2.3.6

What the hell is this and what to do??

I do not know anything about Linux and do not have
the time to become a student

Why can't they make apps that automatically install
and add anything necessary???

Try adding the following to your application manager sources:

Repository: [WWW] http://maemo.o-hand.com/packages
Distribution: mistral/
Component: (leave blank)
It contains libglade2-0_2.4.0-1osso1_armel.deb which should work.
NOTE:
Be sure to put the slash at the end of "mistral/"

Thanks

that did the trick for most of them except one
which asks for python 2.4-gtk2

any more tricks like the above to do this?

And how do I do something like VNC viewer which does not have a repository?

I sure wish Nokia had put all of this in the users manual!

Python is listed at http://maemo.org/maemowiki/ApplicationCatalog2006 as needing the following:
Repository: [WWW] http://repository.maemo.org/
Distribution: mistral
Component: free
For the VNC viewer get your Nokia on the internet and open the web browser. Type in
derek.a.coleman.googlepages.com/vncviewer_0.3.3-i_armel.deb
It would probably be easier to go to http://maemo.org/maemowiki/ApplicationCatalog2006 web page and click on the VNC link from there.

and it should start up the Application Manager and ask if you want to install it.

Actually, there's an even more recent version of VNC Viewer located here.
