Re: restoring Sharp's datebook and addressbook (deleted by thekompany)

Great! It worked. Thank you Colin Pinkney. You saved me HOURS of trying to
set up my Zaurus again. I'll post the completed script below

------------  successful script  ------------------
Retrieving an apparently deleted Sharp Addressbook and Datebook (this worked
on my Zaurus B500 after uninstalling thekompany's tkc Contacts and
tkcCalendar):

Make a backup first ;-) and then open a terminal app:
1) su (enter the root password, which is the passcode, if it asks)
       gives # prompt
2) cd /home/QtPalmtop/bin
3) ln -sf ./quickexec datebook
4) ln -sf ./quickexec addressbook
5) cd /
6) tar xvf /root/.home_default.tar
home/QtPalmtop/apps/Applications/datebook.desktop
       gives line output  #
home/QtPalmtop/apps/Applications/datebook.desktop
7) tar xvf /root/.home_default.tar
home/QtPalmtop/apps/Applications/addressbook.desktop
       gives line output  #
home/QtPalmtop/apps/Applications/addressbook.desktop
8) # exit
       gives bash-2.05$ prompt again
9) qcop QPE/System 'linkChanged(QString)'
10) qcop QPE/System 'updateMenu()'
11) exit

Everything is back to normal. Sharp's AddressBook and Datebook are back and
working.
Reboot and make a new backup.
