I don't have my device in front of me but in the menu is an item dealing with application catalogs. It should provide a list of places where apps are pulled from. There should be an item for extras-devel (and hopefully one for extras). If there is not one for extras, just delete "-devel" and hit ok. If there is an "extras" one, go into the editor for "extras-devel" and I think there is a check box to disable it.

For Maemo4:
1. Run the Application Manager
2. Tap Menu / Tools / Application catalog
3. Tap maemo Extras Devel and tap Edit.
4. Tap Disabled.
5. Tap OK, Close, and close Application Manager.

I found the catalogs under the AppMgr Tools menu, and disabled the extras-devel, reinstalled DC, and still had the same problem

Found a Mameo Extras-Devel also and disabled it, and VIOLA I'm back and running with DC again

. If I had went to the Mameo Talk site and read "buurmas" post (instead of just reading the auto-email), I would have known all this

As usual, a big Thank You to ebay, and even though I stumbled through it before reading, to you too buurmas.

It looks like I have a viable work around for those adventurous enough to ignore my warning.

1. Uninstall any Qt applications if they aren't already(DialCentral, Gonvert, ejpi)
2. Disable extras-devel
3. Install Gonvert
4. Confirm Gonvert launches
5. Enable extras-devel
6. Install DialCentral (make sure the install size is less than a MB)

So it looks like the version of PyQt in extras-devel is broken but not the one in extras. Gonvert is in extras and will pull in the extras version of PyQt. Installing DialCentral from extras-devel will for some reason not pull in the broken version.

O.K. I am not adventurous enough to keep playing with this version. It does load but that is about all, will not connect for out going calls, some of the fonts and icons are very small...sorry I took so much of your time figuring out how to get it loaded on a N8XX. When it's more bake I will try another slice of it. Thanks for your efforts.

Yeah Qt on Maemo 4.1 doesn't work so well. I'll need to do more tweaking. One thing I find strange is that it doesn't properly categorize the items for messages and history.

Hi Ed!

Old version of DC keeps giving me unnecessary grief.

I think it's because of the sheer volume of incoming and outgoing daily texts.

I have to go to the Google Voice web page and delete everything about twice a day.

If you ever want to hang out for the night, I'd be more than happy to share all of my account info with you.
