@applee Thanks for your encouragment, AppLee. I'm starting the process of making the tablet what I want. I'll definately check out Pure Maps!
Daryl

@rondarius Thanks!

@ian Well, I'd say that it is about a tie between the 3 epub readers, and I'll never be able to read Aesop's Tales on my beautiful Ubuntu tablet.

That's ok.

The pdf readers works well enough, and the browser works well enough to read the news papers.

Really unfortunate that there is no realistic way a craven idiot who only knows ho to toggle the on/off switch can't surf privately. All I wanna do is read the news.

WIthout a VPN, I know enough that I may as well post my password files on twitter.

That rots, and limits what I dare to do.

I like my privacy.

@mrt10001 Seems ok for a shorter pdf (eg 15 pages). I will learn to be patient with larger pdf (eg 50+ pages).

The tablet show the pdfs are remarkable crisp and beautifull!!!

@mrt10001 Hi MrT10001:

After installing the update, it works nicely!

Thanks!!!

@ian Hi Ian:

Thanks for your reply.

I instlled EPubviewer an tapped my way over to the SD card where all of my epub files are located.... and chose one of them... (there may be as many as 75 or more epubs and pdfs on the SD card).

Next a window popped up that says "Transfer in Progress" ... with a blue circle that spins.

... and its been spinning a while, with no obvious end in sight.... and the epub I selected is not popping up.

Did I do something wrong?

Daryl

Hi UBport People:

I'm new with the tablet, and just upgraded to 16.04 after leaving my tablet in a closet for a few many years.

Please advise me on the apps I should install (or are installed0 to

• read pdfs, and

• read epubs

Thank you!
Daryl

@ian Thanks, Ian. I appreciate your advice. I realized that the device does not like 64gb sd cards. When I inserted a 32gb SD card, it recognized the card, and allowed me to format it.

How do I mark this query as "Solved"?

@daryl ... I learned what was wrong. I does not recognize 64Gb SD cards. 32GB worked nicely, and the 32gb card is listed in the File Manager app in its left column.

Thank you, arubislander!!!

Daryl

@arubislander
Thanks for your reply and nterest arubislander!

I formated the card as FAT32 on my laptop that uses Ubuntu 22.04 operating system. I know that there are files on that FAT 32 card because I put them there this morning after formating it.

THanks,
Daryl

@ian Hi Ian. Thank you for your reply and interest.

In filemanager, there is no designation for the card on the left column....

At the top there is a "Restriceted Access" banner with an "Unlock" green button . When I touch that and enter my password I'm able to view the rest of the directories under "My Device."

However, when I look under /mnt nothing is there, and when I look under /media nothing is there.

Hello UBports Forum People:

I've upgraded my Aquars M10 fhd to Ubuntu 16.04.

There is a 64GB SD card in its card reader, but I cannot read it, access it, or find it.

I know that there is data on the card: after powering down, I removed in and read it on my 22.04 laptop. There are 2 folders there, one with pdfs, and the other with epub books.

How do I find and/or gain access to the SD card?

Thank you!
