Maybe you can try to type this in your x terminal:

sudo gainroot
apt-get update
apt-get upgrade
apt-get install --reinstall hildon-home

Then reboot.

Thanks for the command lines, I still can't get the 8 home screen to work, I might have to do a reflash if all fail. Oh well! I still love my N900.

When you tried to type the command lines did you have an internet connection?

Have you tried Activating the views?

1 click or tap on the screen and goto Desktop Menu (where you can add contacts /add widget and other stuff..)
2 Click or tap the Manage Views
3 select or deselect how many desktop you like to keep.

Note: those new desktop should display blank or black since there is no background on it. you will have to manually add backgrounds once u active those.


Hope this helps.

Do you have Theme Customizer? Apparently it doesnt allow you to use 9 desktops D:

Thank you guys for the help and advice. I have double checked everything and no solution to my problem. Everything was working just fine, even with the theme customizer install. I guess i will reflash or just deal with the 4 home screen for the mean time

Can anyone help?? ive installed the CSSU update and it seemed to be workin fine, i set up all 9 screens and started to add the widgets and shortcuts and links
then i started to notice a few glitches, a program that used to work ok, Pessonal Countdown wouldnt allow me to change the background settings, and my emails dont want to refresh/update and also if i tap the status bar to change bluetooth or time or add an update etc, the tab doesnt open correctly it shows a thin line just off the top othe screen,

I don't know, but this doesn't sound like it has anything to do with 9 screens. It sounds to me frankly like you might need to reflash soon. You might install backupmenu or at least run the regular backup because bad things might be happening soon.
