Offline wikipedia for DR
I still believe that the DR's, especially the DR1000 with an easily exchangeable external card with up to 32 GB, would be ideal for off-line wikipedia and wiktionary.
I couldn't get the procedure described here https://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=77453 to work all the way, probably because I did not manage to produce the required data files correctly, but in fact it was possible to start the server. Furthermore, it required many external programs and even on the computer, after following http://jsomers.net/blog/offline-wikipedia the result was ok but not great, I was not able to get a correct rendering of mathematical formulas for instance. Alternatives seem to be http://aarddict.org/ or http://evopedia.info/ There has been a port of the latter for the Boox M92, so, since my developer skills are in-existent, I have just tried to adapt what has been done over there https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...9&postcount=69 Over course it does not really work, the error message I get on the emulator is root@qemuarm:/media/mmcblk0p1/Programs/_evopedia# ./_evopedia.sh ./evopedia: error while loading shared libraries: libQtGui.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory bind: Address already in use Any chance to make this work ? |

When trying to play around with the qemu, I very quickly get "no space left on device", so my question is: how to allocate more space to the SD card on the emulator ?
