I noticed some comics were only a few pages long. I checked the .cbr file to find 20 more pages that didn't get displayed. Turns out Comix ran out of space to expand the other pages.

Is it possible to move, reassign, or symlink the temp folder to either sd card?

If it is possible (and I'm assuming it will require some cli voodoo), could someone please provide easy steps?

Much appreciated, thanks.

Bingo.

This appears to be EXACTLY the problem.

My thought is that there might be a config file somewhere we can hand edit to change that value. But I can't figure out where on the bloody n800 the app is being installed! It's not in the default location for comix, /usr/local and it doesn't seem to be in any of the other obvious places, like /usr/share or /usr/share/applications or /home/user/apps

Comix acts works GREAT overall on this device, but this is a VITAL problem. Solve it, and then this thing is really ready to rock.

It's in the standard executable directory in Linux, /usr/bin/. Just make a symlink for the folder ~/.comix/temp/ to an SD card and you should be fine.

cool but uh, how does one do that?

I used the example from the canola thread http://www.internettablettalk.com/fo...ad.php?t=18570

I created a folder "comix_temp" in the top directory of my internal 8 gig SD card.

in the /.comix/temp/ directory I typed:
ln -s /media/mmc2/comix_temp

so far it's not working, am I doing it incorrectly or does the linked directory need to be named the same as the original, or does Comix just not allow it?

With ~/.comix/ as your current directory:
rm -rf temp/
ln -s /media/mmc2/comix_temp/ temp/
