Hi All!

Only just installed it and so far am impressed by performance with AJAX sites!

A simplistic question, perhaps a side-effect of my FireFox-centric thinking.

Is it possible to set a default URL that loads when Tear is launched? Or should I not desire that kind of thing, and embrace a new paradigm?

It's just that I like to have my browsers' default homepages be my personal website - so that I know when my ISP is down

Thanks,

Hmmm...

Menu >> Tools >> Options: homepage was the first thing I tried (while enjoying the about:config paradigm!) before posting the question.

I modified the string to be the URL of my desired site, both with and without the http:// . However, after exiting Tear and re-launching, it would just come up with a blank page and and oscillating activity bar at the bottom of the screen. Selecting the dashboard and clicking on the buttons would take me to sites as expected, and MicroB still worked, so I knew I had a good connection.

So, I tried killing all instances of MicroB, thinking it was somehow freaking out Tear - still no dice.

I then powered off the N810 and back on, and now Tear when launched brings up the home page as expected. <sigh>

Sorry to bug everyone with problem that is probably unrelated to Tear. I've suspected that something has been whacked-out with my N810 since I mucked around with Dbus last week.

Thanks,

Steve

i'm starting to wonder if i have a corrupted db.

bookmarks come and go, settings are missing, and when tear crashes it gives me pages i have not browsed in days (and maybe over multiple days), but not ones i had open just seconds ago...

so, how do i go about fixing it, without clearing it fully?

First get it to your PC, try to open it with for instance this:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/5817

Try to open Tear without a DB, see if you still get any problems.

Hmm, can you check with the SQLite Manager if there are some opened = 1 history entries and how much of them. If there are any - try to clean them and return the db to the tablet. Also check the permissions of the db in the .tear/ folder.
