Am I doing something blatantly wrong?

I've tested it in 2.8, and it works correctly.

Instructions:
1. Connect the iliad to the USB port of your PC
2. unzip the archive in one of the folders of the "iliad drive". I've it in the documents folder, with a directory structure as in:
\documents\dillo\dillo
\documents\dillo\run.sh
\documents\dillo\lib\libgtk-1.2.so.0
...
3. Make scripts to enable/disable the ethernet/wireless interface (see previous posts)
4. Disconnect the iliad (in the safe way: unmount/remove hardware safely, etc)
5. Click on the script to enable the ethernet/wireless interface
6. Click on the run.sh script inside the dillo folder.

I know that the packaging is not the state of the art in packages for the iliad (no icon, no manifest, you have to enter the directory and hunt for run.sh...)... I would gladly accept help from yokos or scotty to pretty it up :-).

If you cannot get it to work with this instructions, keep asking.

P.S.: It seems that you're trying to start it from command-line (mrxvt/ssh/netcat or whatever). To work, the run.sh must be called with the absolute path (that is, /mnt/free/documents/dillo/run.sh): OTOH f it's not launched from the content lister, hardware keys don't work.
