Major Dufus Act
« on: November 04, 2004, 05:34:25 pm »
Okay,
first the ipkg wasn't working well.  I always had an error statement and couldn't install programs like I used too.  I always installed on the command line.  So being the genius that I am, i removed it with the uninstall program.  But, I can't find the program to re-install it? question is, can I install programs now? someone have a lead for me? I checked with ZSI, and I saw only stuff for opie and open. I use cacko.   anyhelp would be great.  

thanks a lot!

I'd say do a backup to SD or CF with Backup/Restore (if you haven't removed it).    
Then flash your rom.
You should have it back.
Now restore your backup.

Check whether the program still exists in /usr/QtPalmtop.rom/bin or your could probably extract it manually from the tarball in /root (they are .home_default or .root_default or some such)
