Hi Folks,

Updated FB reader today to version0.8.13-1 and now it segfaults out.

Not sure what version I had, usually when I see an update to FBReader I update it since I use the N800 mostly as an ebook reader.

Am running the LCARS theme, which is the only other change I have made recently. Went back to the original theme, made no difference. Uninstalled and re-installed and got the same thing. uninstalled, rebooted and reinstalled - same thing. I am getting (thank the gods for the xterm :-):

~$ FBReader
FBReader[1533]: GLIB WARNING ** GTK - gtk_widget_size_allocate(): attempt to allocate widget with width -24 and height 0
Segmentation Fault
~$

It gets to the point of putting up the screen and starts opening the book and disappears, with the above.

Anyone know how I can roll back to a previous version so I can finish this book? Hate to have to dig out the Z31 and get that going again.

Thanks VERY much for any help, suggestions or pointers!

Take care es 73, V.

Getting similar type of problem on my 770 (latest os2006)
I get he following in xterm:
~ $ FBReader -v
1077: arguments to dbus_connection_register_object_path() were incorrect, assertion "path[0] == '/'" failed in file dbus-connection.c line 4349.
This is normally a bug in some application using the D-BUS library.
Segmentation fault

Have fun

Hi Ben,

NOT fun, right at the exciting conclusion of the story :-(.

Not sure what to do at this point, perhaps get stuff that works and just not update anything.

Dug out the Z31 and got it loaded up with what I need there, so I'll survive. Longer I have the n800 I wonder what the point is when the Z31 does a lot of what I need :-/.

Yes, just slightly frustrated ATM :-).

73, V.

It happened to me after the 'upgrade'

The following works again - phew

Thanks folks, what a NICE thing to wake up to .

Permanently archived those copies.

Last night the n800 was powered down and in a drawer, first time since I got it :-(. Dug out the z31 and finished the book :-/.

Will be nice to have the LCARS theme back too .

Much appreciated!

How do you get those to install? I can't get them to.

just clicked the link and chose open - I am using an 800 with OS2008

Or go into the application mananger and from the top menu select tools and then install from file and navigate to where you put them.

This is what I just did, worked great and I have FBReader back!!!!!!!! :-) :-) :-)!

Not sure you need to install the zlibzlibrary first or not, but that is what I did - worked fine :-).

Did I mention how happy I am to have FBReader back :-) :-) :-)!
HTH

Hrm. Neither option works for me. I'm on a 770.
