Mnemosyne: v1.21
OS: Ubuntu 9.10

Gonna explain my situation and my process (so to maybe help anyone
that comes searching for similar things after).

My underlying hope is to take all my previous work from Supermemo Palm
(medical school databases and all my learning) and bring them over to
Mnemosyne without losing all that data.  I've already expended a good
deal of time reading and searching only to be stopped short when I
feel so close.

So I used smconv.pl to convert files over (as suggested on the website
and elsewhere) and I used the following link as my walkthrough (3rd
post):

(while I'm not totally tech inept, I don't have much terminal
experience, no perl programing experience so this link helped a lot
taking me step by step (and the example file in smconv was invaluable
for how to actually input it)).

So after grabbing the pieces needed to convert it (PDB 1.012 for perl
and XML simple 2.18), I was able to run it and get my xml files
outputed.  I had some initial difficulty in uploading them into
Mnemosyne but then changed the encoding from encoding="us-ascii" to
encoding="UTF-8" and saved it as such in gedit (saw this tip from
multiple sources).

That finally allowed me to upload it into Mnemosyne (and it shows my
cards (bottom corner lists scheduled and not memorized)).  I am able
to click them and go through the scheduled cards.  However, when I
attempt to edit the deck, it says loading and then never opens (and
the loading text goes away).  After that I am also unable to close
Mnemosyne without forcequit.

So that is where I'm stuck. Not sure if it's a problem with my XML
file and my conversion with smconv.pl or something within Mnemosyne.
Any suggestions would be great to get beyond this impass.

Things that I can think of from my palm pdb that could cause problems
would be having a 3 or 4th field.

Appreciate any help and please let me know if you need more
information.
