- In the development environment the path to this folder is:
Kanotix/scratchbox/users/knoppix/home/knoppix/MyDocs
The Kernel Concepts guys straightened me out on this, and when I created the right folder everything was smooth. What folder are you putting the books in?

Only pdb files? Won't the prc files from Gutenberg work?

I have a directory in the root of my memory card called MyDocs. I put a pdb file in there and Plucker still won't add it to the library

There serveral different format hidden behind ".pdb" Most likely you have a Palmdoc.pdb format aht you need convert to plucker.pdb.

I'm getting closer. I used Plucker desktop and the tutorial posted on the previous page to convert a text file to plucker pdb format. This added ok to the Plucker database but when I try to view it I just get a blank page.

I suggest using a pdb file that you know can be read by Plucker -- one of those from the Plucker site, or Alice in Wonderland, or one of the other examples from Kernel Concepts. At least you should rule out it being a problem with what you're trying to read or open.

The Alice in Wonderland pdb works but anything I create using Plucker desktop doesn't.

During the installation of plucker you had an option to add "convert to plucker" to txt and html file popup menus. Write a simple text file (just a sentence in english) and try to convert it.
