Zocalo Web Feed Reader (sharp Rom) Options

[koan]

Hi

Zocalo is a lightweight web feed reader for the Sharp ROM. It is designed for the PDA form factor, i.e. make sensible use of a small screen, use keyboard or stylus to navigate everything, don't use a lot of memory or disk space. It can handle RSS, RSS RDF and Atom.

I have been testing Zocalo for a few months now and it seems stable. There are a few minor issues that I want to improve in future releases and I have a lot of ideas for features that I want to implement. I plan to port to the other Zaurus Linuxes.

Please find more details at the Zocalo web page.

I could never get version 1.7 to work properly. I tried removing all of my settings as well but it still will not start from the icon. In fact, it would not start at all, not even from the console, after I removed the settings and feed files as well. Get this error:

CODE

bash-2.05$ zocalo
Display size = 480x640
QGArray::at: Absolute index 0 out of range

I ended up sticking with the pre 1.7 version that you emailed me which still works just fine.

Regarding it trying to update on its own. The only way I can get it to do it is if I select update all and then disable the network connection while it is in the process. Then 50% of the time it will keep trying to do an update every 30 seconds or so until I have around 10 of the "do you want to continue updating" messages on the screen.

Hope any of this helps.
