Re: Now for lots and lots of questions...
Hi Xenophon,
With regards to traversing the folder structure, is creating nested folders something you can do with the Windows Connect Reader software or the PRS500 itself or is this specific to the readerfs implementation? |

readerfs for linux?
Hello all,
There was a message a while back about readerfs working on a linux distro.... Is there a linux binary, debian package, or a source repository available? Not looking for a gui, just the command-line mount. I'm using: kernel 2.6.17 debian testing I already have fuse installed (libfuse2 2.5.3-4.1) for encfs, would that work with this? Thanks, Lee |

When I just use the raw FUSE-based filesystem that Scotty wrote, I can copy folders (and their nested contents) smoothly. When I do this with your tool, it doesn't work. The PRS500 finds the files just fine, and displays them in the usual fashion. I'd sure like to be able to use your nice GUI-based tool to manage my books in a similar fashion. I rather expected to be able to drag-n-drop my 'By Authors' folder and have all its recursive contents copied to the PRS500. Xenophon |

I just wanted to get the software loaded up and running before the great day. I checked out the binary with ldd and all seems well. When I first ran it (with no options) it complained that my installed libfuse wasn't the right version, so I updated to 2.6 and it no longer complains. (other than telling me I forgot the mount point, which is true). I'll let ya know how she flies when my baby arrives. Thanks, Lee |

EDIT: The issue discussed in this post is not related to Docudesk or readerfs. It was bad LRF generation on my part (now fixed) and never had anything to do with Docudesk/readerfs.
There was some previous discussion about Metadata, and I think this may be a real problem. I generated two LRF files with TOCs in the Menu. Just to make sure I'm clear, when you've selected a book, it's entry #5 "Table of Contents" which you can select by pressing 5 on the Reader. So I'm not talking a TOC page, but the TOC menu. I used Docudesk on one LRF, and after I unmounted/restarted the Reader, it spun for a VERY LONG TIME... generating new metadata I assume. When I went to my new LRF, selected #5 - "Table of Contents" the Reader locked up for over a minute! Once it came back, I was able to select an item. However, if I returned to the TOC Menu, I was dead again for a minute or two. This basically rendered the TOC unusable. With my second LRF, I used the Connect Software to transfer. Selecting the TOC here had about a 5 second delay, even though it was about the same size as the other LRF. I've generated a few other LRFs with 25 or more TOC entries, and these also worked fine when using Connect to transfer. Even using Connect to re-transfer the "bad" LRF doesn't help. It looks like the Reader re-uses the Metadata, and it makes determining the problem all that much harder (is it that particular file? is it the metadata? etc.) The only solution I can think of is reformatting the Reader and starting over (how?). Or maybe I can delete one of the two media.xml files, and the reader will be forced to use the other (assuming the one to delete is in /tmp/database/cache). Any thoughts? -Pie Last edited by EatingPie; 05-15-2007 at 12:04 AM. Reason: Problem Solved - NOT Docudesk/readerfs |
