Couple Iliad questions
Hi all, it seems that this forum is all DR800 now, but I've got a second hand iliad I want some help with.
First, I'm affected by the page jumping bug, is there anything I can do about this? Second: Also related, when reading comics, it's typical for it to spit me out to the index at the back of the book. Is there something I'm doing wrong here? All conversions by calibre. Third: I'm having trouble mounting it under linux, I had the internal memory show up in calibre once, and after that I've been getting error messages. I do think this is the linux parts problem, but I thought I'd share it as well, just in case someone has a solution. Thanks all |

There was also a community effort to patch the PDF viewer to disable the long jump as well. I don't know if it was completed or was still being tested. You might look through older topics in the iLiad developer threads and see if there is something in there talking about it, and possibly some install files. |

Thanks for the reply. Yes, I was talking about the 5 page jump. It happens, but isn't that bad to be disastrous, I'll take a look under development forums later.
But the comics bug is _highly_ annoying, when I read mobis of comics I often get only a few pages forward before it throws me to the TOC at the end. It's completely horrible. I've been meaning to try to use calibre to convert to pdfs instead of mobis to see if that solves it (and it should since pdfs seem to work without this), but I'm running in to some distro specific problems. And JE-comics is just rubbish, so I can't even use that |
