2. Find the dictionary link

3. Download selected dictionary "tarball" files

*tarball file is suffixed .tar.bz2, to extract this file, need download another program 'bzip2'

4. Download 'bzip2' at http://www.gronmayer.com/it/

5. unzip use following steps.

a. bunzip2
b. tar xvf
c. mv /home/XXXXXXX/stardict-oald-2.4.2/ /usr/share/stardict/dic/


here is the location where we are supposed to put dictionaries.
* /media/mmc1/stardict/dic
* /media/mmc2/stardict/dic (N800 only)
* /usr/share/stardict/dic
* ~/.stardict/dic

TIP:don't need do as the last step c, put dictionaries to /usr/share/stardict/dic/, I just put at /media/mmc2/stardict/dic, it works too on N810. That saves spaces a lot.
