You'll have to move libX11 from _local/lib to _local/private/lib and also modify LD_LIBRARY_PATH in start.sh in the programs directory.

"LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib:/usr/local/private/lib" should work.

Adam,

is that quoted change the only thing, or will I need to do that as well as move libX11 after the installer has run?

thanks

You will need to move libX11 as well.

I am new on this forum. I want an eBook reader specifically for my Chm files. Will FBReader support Chm fully on iLiad? I mean will I be able to view the Chm tree structure and open and collapse the chm tree as on a pc? Can I use the Chm search function to search in the chm file? My chm file is 200 Mb is size. Also is the chm tree pane and the right page pane visible at the same time as on a pc? Or it has be toggled? Please help and reply to these questions so that I can decide. Thanks.

I downloaded FBReader on XP. It opens other chm files which are around 15 to 20 MB in size but it when I try to open my 200 MB Chm file, the screen goes blank and it does nothing. Can anyone kindly help? Does FBReader support big files of 200 Mb size on the PC and on iLiad?

FBReader currently reads the entire file into memory during initialization of a new e-book. I don't know how much space this requires, but it is certainly more than the original file size.

On a Desktop machine (Linux or Windows), it should be possible to configure enough virtual memory to import any reasonably sized file with FBReader. Although there may be a 32-bit file/memory limit (typically 1 GB or more). However, I don't know how to increase the swap space under Windows. If you can send the file to the developers, they may be able to help. Try posting to the FBReader Google Group (even if you can't supply the CHM file). It is also possible that FBReader is working as it should but importing a 200 MB file takes a long time even on a fast desktop. So I suggest leaving it for ~10 minutes to see if it eventually comes up.

On the iLiad, memory is very limited. On the Nokia 770 (and N800), it is possible to add swap space on a MMC card, but I have not heard of anything similar for the iLiad. I did hang the iLiad on a 4 MB CHM file with FBReader - the same file loaded fine on a Windows XP Desktop. I was able to read both a 4 MB and a 7 MB CHM file on a Nokia 770, although the 7 MB file took more than 5 minutes to import.
