What it doesn't say is what reader to use :-?
The wikipedia mentions Calibre, EPUBReader (an add on for FF), FBReader, and Okular - it is not clear how to create them. What has Novell used?
Awesome information and questions. Thank you. I think I'll look into it myself.
Calibre is available from my openSUSE buildserver repository, see http://software.opensuse.org/search?baseproject=openSUSE%3A11.2&p=1&q=calibre
Unfortunately, it is not available in openSUSE 11.2. I was a bit too late.
This is a pretty intriguing package. I installed it while casting around for something to read some purchased electronic books from amazon and Barnes an Nobel. By and large it worked very well as a reader of all the formats it supports. The ability to download news papers is one of the best implementations I have ever seen. Conversion from one format to another is still a bit shaky, often failing for no obvious reason with no diagnostics at all. I hope future versions will be able to upload to some of the more popular services (Amazon, B&N) which allow you to upload your books to your private bookshelf on these services for download to their reader devices. Note I used the Ubuntu version, as I did this before 11.2 came out. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
