Setup Fring on N810

Fring logo
Fring is amazing application which brings Skype, ICQ, Yahoo! Messenger, MSN amd more to mobile phone. I already installed it on my Nokia E65 and it works pretty cool. But recently I found info about availability Fring for Nokia N800 and N810. So, I decided to install it on my N810 as well. N810 already includes Skype, Gizmo and SIP client. But it’s really good idea to have one application which provides many IM options.

Installation was easy as usually. But after that I couldn’t run Fring because it needed libhildonmm-1.0.so.1:
error while loading shared libraries: libhildonmm-1.0.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
The simple workaround is to make a symlink on libhildonmm-1.0.so.2:
sudo gainroot
ln -s /usr/lib/libhildonmm-1.0.so.2 /usr/lib/libhildonmm-1.0.so.1

It might be also interesting for all iPhone owners that there is a Fring version for Apple device as well.
