Hi,

Applied your patch from below makes my Filemanager able to copy files, thanks 
for this.

To use this improvement within my Familiar/Opie installation I tried to 
overwrite the latest Familiar/Opie installed files libadvancedfm.so and 
advancedfm by the newly created. This doesn't work. Also an install of the 
newly created opie-advancedfm.ipk does nor work (I can use -force-depends to 
force installation but file manager is not running). To much changes 
obviously, especially the new directory structure !?

That lets me expect that I'm also not able to use an existing Familiar 
repository to install missing packages into the newly build Angstrom / Opie. 
As I only own this one h2200 and I'm using it almost on a daily basis and the 
Angstrom install lacks a lot of applications I'll go back to the Familiar 
install on my device and try to bitbake then missing applications on my PC as 
the next steps. 

Bye for now
Gerhard
