No, just run it as user.

Installation was straightforward.

After installing Garnet, go to Audible and search for Palm software. When asked what kind of computer it's for, say a PC. You will receive a prc file. Download to your N900 then install using the Garnet Palm software.

Then you can download the programs you bought from Audible and play them.
I already have Garnet5 installed on my Nokia n800. If I download audible will it work correctly with Garnet 5...and should I doownload it to my memory card in palm/launcher file, where I have my other palm stuff? I am hoping for positive answer

No. I just used those instructions and they worked. No biggie. You probably had a space where no space was needed, or something.

Audible works fine on my N800. I think it will work with your setup.

The only problem I have encountered with Audible on my N900 is that so far I have to install from scratch EVERY TIME. If I close the Garnet interface, I have to start over with AudiblePlayerPack Installer AGAIN, and that means I have to redownload the audio I want to play. I also have to reregister the program with Audible, which is a pain.

I expect to find ways around this problem.

try to enable the vistual sd card and install the audible .prc in sdcard/PALM/Launcher
it will remain there.

Right. I actually found another workaround ... but I'm not sure how. The trick is to exit the Garnet program using its interface, not shut the program by clicking on the x. typing Ctrl x seemed to be a good way to go. I'm ok now and don't have to keep reinstalling.

Quite a nice idea! Ctrl+X did nothing here but Ctrl+Q did.

(I was going to suggest just waiting a bit around the Prefs app before closing since GVM flushes its caches from time to time)

I can't seem to find where to get the prc from...

When you say go to Audible, it's the web site or the PC application?
