Problem with Xiphos
Hi,

I have a problem with Xiphos on Ubuntu 10.04.
When I click a verse number in a bible (so I can view to corresponding commentary entry) the Bible view goes back to the beginning of the chapter I am currently in. This is really annoying as when I click to view the commentary, then have to scroll down to find the original bible verse again.

Can anybody help with this?

Many thanks,
Alex

Re: Problem with Xiphos
This is a known problem. Unfortunately we have no fix yet (it's a problem with one of the libraries Xiphos uses).

Re: Problem with Xiphos
yes, I find that the only obstacle I have in using Xiphos. Hopefully it can be addressed in the future.

Re: Problem with Xiphos
My current version of Xiphos is 3.1.3-mozembed and i am using ESV library. When I click on a verse number or enter a search, the Bible panel still only displays verse 1, but I can scroll down and that verse number will be highlighted in the text. I guess Ubuntu is still waiting on that update?

i don't know what it takes for these updates to get back into mainline ubuntu repos, but you can be sure that our ubuntu builder makes sure that this repo is always up to date.

Re: Problem with Xiphos
You'll have to excuse my overwhelming naivete, I just jumped into linux 2 days ago. How do I update xiphos to fix this problem? I followed the link and the instructions, successfully added the repository to my system, and when I opened the software center and Crosswire repository, it said I have all the xiphos related software, but I still have this problem. Any help? Thank you

Re: Problem with Xiphos
BeYeDoers, go to System->Administration->Synaptic. Inside Synaptic, click the Reload button at the upper left. Then click "Mark All Upgrades", and then "Apply".

sad Re: Problem with Xiphos
This did not work for me. I have 2 laptops with ubuntu 10.10 on both and they both behave the same in Xiphos (straight to verse one every time!) after update/apply etc with synaptic.
