I'm running the newest version on my netbook with Ubuntu 9.10!

Curious. It doesn't seem to do that here.
I installed FBReader 0.12 under Puppy Linux 4.12, having previously had 08.17, 0.10.2, and 0.11 installed. I use Xfce4 as my window manager/GUI.
Puppy required a manual install, as it's not a Debian or Red Hat based distro: I got 0.12 to install by extracting the data.gz files from th FBReader and dependency debs, and extracting to the file system.
It works fine here tested on ePub, fb2, mobi, and Plucker files. I don't add books to the library. I keep them in category subdirectories under an ebooks directory, and have Linux set to use FBReader to open those files.
I have Xubuntu 9.10 on the device as well, but have to install the GPG key file before apt-get will grab FBReader from the repository, so haven't tested there yet.
