argh Major Problem!!!
 
I disconnected my N900 from my pc, I started the tweaker application, created a new profile, everything fine. Went back to the desktop scrolled trough my desktop clicked on the edit icon to move one of my widgets then the chaos begun, all my desktops started merging together then the device crashed and it keeps restarting since...


am i screwed?

I bet it's time to http://wiki.maemo.org/Updating_the_firmware .

Got backups? That's what you usually do when installing unstable software.

If you have ssh installed, you can ssh into your phone and revert the changes made by tweaker like told in this thread: http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=38009

If it is totally dead and in irreversible reboot loop, the reflash is probably only thing there is left to do. Note that it nukes all your contacts, calendar entries, software, everything except the stuff in MyDocs (audio, video, images).

Flashing on Windows should be pretty straightforward if you have 32bit OS.
