Confirmed, it's back on my desktop.
Also, a suggestion: Could you add a NULL search engine or a similar concept? Or maybe a feeling lucky thing. I'd think being able to just go to a site I want from the desktop would be cool, now I have to go through the Web thing.
Either use a http://%s or simply %s and start the edit box with a http:// default in it. Alternately, a feeling lucky or similar thing, whatever Firefox uses when I type random stuff in the address bar. I think it uses Google as a back end.

Thanks, Brent - latest working fine now, after I remembered to delete previous before downloading the .deb (!)
Before that I tried using FapMan to upgrade and suffered the disappearing widget syndrome.
Will donate on Pay Day - this really is one of the key apps to a good N900 experience

Adding the http prefix to the search form would need a special code change in TS to enable that -- do you think it is really necessary?

All times are GMT. The time now is 06:03.
To test, download from extras-devel or here: http://www.touchsearch.org/downloads..._3.2-3_all.deb
Thanks for testing!
