Quick question: does the application manager require a internet connection?
I was trying to install the VIM which I had previously saved on my SD card
at home. I currently have no WIFI connection but internet and have just
flashed the newer OS version. But whenever I try to install VIM "from
file..." it gives me the dialogue "connecting..." and of course never finds
something. When I cancel I just get the "Unable to refresh list." dialog and
that's it! Any ideas?

Hi,

If its a .deb file, you can easily install it throught he xterm -
"dpkg -i app.deb"
If its an *.install file - its just a set of instructions for the app manager.

I hope it helps :)
