If you don't want to use the normal Facebook site you can also try these more mobile-friendly versions: http://touch.facebook.com/ http://m.facebook.com/ Or you could attempt to download and install the Garnet OS VM for Maemo (latest is beta5 dated December 2009, I think) from the access software web page and then install the Facebook client for Palm OS on the N900... see how /if it works. :) (I don´t have a N900 to test, just a N800).

Perhaps you're confusing the Facebook Widget and the Facebook Widget Installer. (Same for Amazon, AP news etc). Just uninstall the installer versions and those icons will go away from your menu. ___ maemo-users mailing list maemo-users@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-users

Actually, yes. I'm pretty sure both Gizmo and Skype used this technique in Diablo.

Re: Facebook app is just a commercial after update
So question, is there a facebook app or is it just the widget? Maybe I can go to uninstall and remove the add and then the real app will show up (althought I doubt it). Maybe I should google at maemo repo and learn what really is out there. I would love to have a facebook app that allow me to upload my camera pics. -- Kahlil Johnson Ya tengo GMAIL!! You allready have app that allows uploading of pics if you have installed the facebook app (with installer or from HAM, doesn't matter) are you familiar how media sharing is done with N900?

I was thinking more of a an actual facebook client like the ones on blackberry and Iphone which are different from the N900 widget. For example I cant send msg to facebook from the widget, nor post on my friends wall's. But I guess this is good enough. I would also wonder if there is a way to extend the conversations Chat to also allow Facebook buddies. Pidgin for linux has this extension but the library is not builted for N900. http://code.google.com/p/pidgin-facebookchat/ Would be good to get it ported to the N900 pidgin. I would report the bug except garage doesn't seem to have a page for N900's Pidgin. -- Kahlil Johnson Ya tengo GMAIL!! ___ maemo-users mailing list maemo-users@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-users
Facebook app is just a commercial after update
Hi today I got this update on my maemo that included Maemo 5 and some facebook stuff. However one of the installed was actually just an icons that send me to the app manager. This is kind of silly since I already have the facebook widget installed. I install it because I thought it was an actual app, it shows as an app menu but in the end is just a way to try to get it from the app manager. Please let me know if anyone had that similar issue. I guess I can just select and uinstall it exacept I am not sure I can take it off since is not really an app. -- Kahlil Johnson Ya tengo GMAIL!! ___ maemo-users mailing list maemo-users@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-users
