Suggest you do this before you download any new apps.
Increase the size of the reserved space on an SD card
(Soft.img starts off at 256MB but can be altered to any size you like upto 4GB ?)
For ver 4.0 in evilvte type "sudo leafpad /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/GDebi/SDInst.py"
For ver 5.0 in evilvte type "sudo leafpad /usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/GDebi/SDInst.py"
Look for a line towards the top that ends "LOOP_FILE_SIZE = 256 #256MB " Change = 256 to e.g. = 2048 (for 2MB)
The trick is to alter the size first then save and exit. Start GDebi, when it has finished loading, close it. Now check the size of soft.img it should reflect your newly created size. If you get any SD card 'init' errors, delete soft.img and re run GDebi. If you look in location /mnt/loop/share/applications/ you will find evidence of your installed apps.
