Re: [Ifp-driver-common] KDE KIO slave for iRiver iFP MP3 players

[Thomas L. <if...@lo...>]

Hello all:

I must admit I didn't really test the library with KDE 3.1 as I switched to=
=20
KDE 3.2 three weeks ago.

But thanks to useful feedback from Navidson I was able to solve the issues=
=20
that appeared with kio_ifp and KDE 3.1 so now the plugin should also work i=
n=20
KDE 3.1.

I uploaded the new version to: http://ifp.loeber1.de/kio_ifp-0.11.tar.gz

Keep in mind that it is not possible to rename a file or directory. At leas=
t=20
the ifp command line utility doesn't provide that kind of operation. And as=
=20
kio_ifp is based upon the functions of ifp-line kio_ifp currently isn't abl=
e=20
to do a rename as well.

And don't make the mistake I made: don't *move* mp3 files to your iFP as yo=
u=20
won't be able to get them back from there.

Have fun!

Thomas
