Any suggestions for a good .lit reader for linux(KDE) ???
I have been google-ing for quiet some time but I am unable to find a reader for .lit format files !

Try Calibre. It can convert them to another format, but it also has a reader that should be able to view them. Here is the install page.

If you need help any installing post back

hey thanks ... will try and let you know if i face any problems :)
i am getting this error mate

What distribution of Linux are you running?

kubuntu 9.10

Have you got Python installed/updated?

Calibre is in ubuntu's repositories, so you can just open terminal and type:


It should be just that easy

EDIT: Or are you getting that error from installing the packages in their repertories...?

yes python is installed.


^^^ command works, was trying to download and compile from the source files.
Thanks
