As for the segmentation fault, just now I disabled all applets from the .config file and tried running qpe. However, I could not get rid of the segmentation fault. Yeah, I guess its a better idea to use more recent versions of opie.. 2. The Opieplayer issue that I have.. Do you know which part of the codes is responsible for the scanning of the filesystem, that u mentioned? Perhaps, if I could disable that, would it work? Thank you so much for your time paul!

All other applications run fine.<br> <br> </div>Opieplayer is probably scanning your entire hard drive looking for media<br> files, and does not respond while it is doing so. This usually works fine on<br> a handheld because the filesystem is usually not that large, but on a desktop<br> this can take a long time. Opie-MediaPlayer2 is a little better at this, but<br> really it's something that needs to be worked on.<br> <br> Cheers,<br> <font color="#888888">Paul<br> </font></blockquote></div><br> ------=_Part_1195_16740850.1206614868956-- --===============0851719647== Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline _______________________________________________ Open Source User Interface and Apps built on Qt Embedded Opie mailing list [email protected] https://handhelds.org/mailman/listinfo/opie --===============0851719647==--
