[shrunstable] Midori question

2009-09-23 Thread Jan Henkins
Hello all,

I'm using midori - 0.1.10-r2 on SHR unstable, which is a great experience
overall. One of the biggest things I use my FR for is to read ebooks when
I commute on the train using FBReader. Mostly I download ebooks on my PC
and scp it across, because for some reason I cannot download files
properly with Midori. This seems to be a general thing, but the site I
normally frequent for my SciFi fix is the free library at:
http://www.baen.com
Earlier versions of Midori displayed the file instead of download it, but
0.1.10-r2 simply does nothing when I click on any link to download either
.mobi or .zip files. Does other people also experience the same issue?

The problem is Midori is not configured with a downloader, and we can't give
it one because under the Preferences window in Midori the downloader option
is grayed out.

No problem, if you want to try and get that changed then I would open a bug
report in SHR's bug trac I don't see why something like wget can't be used
in this case.

I know there's one trick where you can tap the power button to turn the 
FR on, then press and hold the AUX button for the entire duration that's 
it's lit up red (this is you telling Qi that you want to skip that boot 
option) and it will move on to NAND.

You can find more info at the wiki's Qi page:
