No joy. I installed the openinkpot dir at top of SD card.

I ran the openinkpot exe.

There was a very slow boot with a lot of screen blinking, then "Openinkpot" logo in big friendly letters :-) I was prompted to set the time/date, and I got a rather nice looking main menu.

But...

When I selected Library, nothing happened. Nothing happened for any of the media items (Library, Audio, Images). Games got me a list of puzzle-type games. Applications got me a blank screen. Apparently there is no Library.

I'm not sure how to get OI to *see* the book files already on the SD card. The OI web site says something obscure about a Disk Menu, but I cannot get any such menu to pop up from the main menu. Eventually I hit the wrong button and got to a plaintext version of the main menu, which seems to have killed the device for the moment -- no buttons have any effect any more, not even the keyboard lock.

Is this really a stable release? :-)

The GUI sure is nice looking though. If I can make it work I prefer the looknfeel to either Basic Jinke or Tirwal... I think.

Any clues? I'm going to reboot and do a little googling.
