I have tested your activity FBReader and i found some problems:<br><br> * If "rainbow" is enabled the activity doesn't work.<br> * If I open a book, i have to remove the content of "activity/instance/" folder for open it again.<br>
<br>I know that this activity has sense on sugar 0.82. In sugar 0.84 I am able to use the activity Read. However, in sugar 0.84 I have some problems with "Read". When I want to change the page the activity get stuck. Maybe this depend on the epub format version that I am testing.<br>
<br>Do you know if the activity FBReader for sugar 0.82 and the activity Read for 0.84 have some problem?<br><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Mon, Apr 26, 2010 at 5:06 PM, Sayamindu Dasgupta <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:sayamindu@gmail.com">sayamindu@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

</div>Read supports EPUB if the right dependencies are installed. However,<br>
for OLPC 8.2.x builds, one has to use FBReader Activity<br>
(<a href="http://dev.laptop.org/%7Esayamindu/FBReader-4.xo" target="_blank">http://dev.laptop.org/~sayamindu/FBReader-4.xo</a> is the latest<br>
version). It's an ugly hack, but it works.<br>
