Trouble with Freemind

[Taeko]

Hello

I tried out Freemind from the Repo. But if I want to start it nothing happens. Libre office works fine on my classic Pandora and have it updated to the latest OS version. I don t know if it is because the Repo got a little old or if my pandy configuration is wrong. So before I search deeper for the fault on my device, I would be happy to know if someone has trouble with it too.

Thanks

I haven't tried it but have you installed the java runtime pnd?

Yes the java runtime pnd is installed.

I just installed it and it seems to run fine on my GHz model, my guess is you need a swap file. If that doesn't help you can try and copy the content of /tmp/pndrun_freemind.out in here so some more expert people can take a look at it and tell you what's wrong

Okey next weekend I try to create a swap file.

there's a nice tool for it under the System menu, it creates the swapfile and can activate/deactivate it. Matter of seconds to get that done
Mind that ejecting the SD card while the swapfile on it is active will crash your pandora and can possibly create errors on your card.

That tool isn't on the OS by default, you need to download this: http://repo.openpandora.org/?page=detail&app=swaptools-0.1-slaeshjag

Oops, my bad.. Thanks for the correction

Thanks for the advice. I successfully installed and activated the swap file. This didn t change anything. But after reading the pndrun_freemind.out, I found out, that Java is not starting properly. So I installed java anew and now it works fine.
