downloaded "becomeroot" from the app installer.

Then I just open the web brower and put a "/" for the url. Then naviagated to
/usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/hildon/

I held down the pointer and did a save as on the following files...

qgn_indi_startup_nokia_logo.png (800x480)
qgn_indi_nokia_hands.jpg (800x480)
qgn_indi_progressbar.png (24x16)

... and save them to an SDcard.

I copyed then on to the desktop computer , I made two copies one was for a backup.
The other copy I pasted in new pictures using MsPaint and save them back on to the SDcard with the same file name, and I keep the picture the same size.

Once I replaced the SDcard I open "Xterm". I switch to root....

sudo gainroot

...then I change to the directory the files live in...

cd /usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/hildon/

Next I deleted the old copies from that directory...

rm *nokia_hands.jpg
rm *startup_nokia_logo.png


(only did those two pictures)

After that I change in xterm back to the directory with the new picture on them....

cd /media/mmc1/

(the location for the SDcards are mmc1 or mmc2)

then the new files were copied were the old ones lived...

cp *nokia_hands.jpg /usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/hildon/
cp *startup_nokia_logo.png /usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/hildon/


Then I restarted the N800.


What would nice is if one the devolper who live here would write an app to all the above for ya.
Hint..hint..wink..wink
