Manually revert Modest

I upgraded Modest to it’s latest version (1.0-2008.16-1) the other day and it stopped working i.e. no connection to Gmail IMAP. The previous version (1.0-2008.15-1) worked fine… but I just didn’t know how to revert back to this version. So I reckoned itT would be the best place to try and find a solution, and I did thanks to member qole. Thanks qole!

I’ve pasted his solution below and changed the links for version 1.0-2008.15-1. Read more »

C2:TUBE

Canola2 has added it’s first "plugin" to the Canola player. It’s a YouTube plugin and this plugin allows you to watch YouTube videos directly in the player. It’s a cool addition to the player and works well.

Canola2 has also recently released new themes for the player. You can grab them here . I’m using the flat black theme at the moment.

Note: installation of the plugin + themes is done via the Canola2 site .
