This isn't the hint you're looking for, but try Privoxy instead. I find it much more lightweight.

Event better, ad blocking hosts and CSS.

Well I get the endless reboot. So I went to reflash but since I used my original Nokia cable on my mini keyboard I tried the DealExtreme 'copy'. The upgrade wizard and Windows says it doesn't recognise it. So I guess that's it!
What is special in the Nokia cable that is missing from the DX copy? Anyone have a clue?

This update went seamless for my N810...It also fixed the email app (modest?) I now get led flash with new emails :)

Uh, your system is still there. You don't have to clone anything. Just reflash fanoush's initfs.

Hmm my n800 doesn't even detect the update (even with a forced refresh).

Did you remove osso-software-version? . . .

  4. Have installed powermenu
  5. ...

These things change the way the tablet works. Nokia aren't going to be able to test and support these things. It's up to the people who package these add-ons to find a way of safely reverting back to the previous behaviour if they find the world they're inhabiting gone wrong. Or to disable auto-update. Or to better inform their users.

I agree.
Personally, no issues on my update (mid-evening EST). But its just interesting that so many have had an issue. One cannot account for all variances, and that's just the stake. You get the factory fresh and the first (or second if you have the time) standard devations to work and the rest get worked on along the way.

That's what, 2 months between SSU updates? Think I might be able to set my calendar by this ;) ?

Obviously, there is a disproportionate amount of failure here. For most people, if it works, its works. If it causes a major malfunction, ask for help.

Somehow I could not find the SSU, but I needed to reflash anyway, so I did. Is rotation being worked on for the new kernel, or does it already work?

The patch should already work, but AFAIK noone's built the new kernel with the rotation patch.
