Marcelo, I swear you respond to me faster than my mother would, even when I was a baby!

Well, I did the uninstall per the directions (after deleting and re-installing all my catalogs) (except I was bad and did it via sudo gainroot), and then installed from the maemo.org website rather than the command line, and ...

. . . it works great! I've watched a movie, loaded in the url for my DemocracyNow podcast, and MARVELLED over a what a beautiful and sophisticated application you and and the guys and women on your team have made. BRILLIANT!

Thanks again and again. Ciao! Gerald
