Angstrom looks oustanding! Kudos to the devs as usual for making it happen.
I have a question. While I would love to upgrade from OZ, one of the major apps I use (both personally and professionally) is Opie-reader. I have spent the last couple of years gathering hundreds of pieces of documentation via plucker for stuff I use on a daily basis. My Collie has become my mobile library. I have skimmed the repos, but didn't see a replacement for Opie-reader, which is the only tool I have found that will read pdb files. Anyone got a good way to either read them in Angstrom or convert them to, say, html? Also, what browser options are available? Thanks, --Storm |

Thanks, --Storm  Don't use Angstrom so not sure but FBreader is great on pdaxrom - does everything cept pdf - if I could get it to do pdf then I would have only one and the same doc reader for all my stuff. |

Thanks, --Storm It would be possible to build uqtreader for you, the qt4-x11 version of opie-reader. |

Just to make sure- koen did not say that he will do this  Someone will still have to write the appropriate recipes into OpenEmbedded (and maybe provide the appropriate patches). Oliver |

I'd love to see that too. How do those of us yet without build environments have something compiled? Post a request in the bugtracker? |
