Here's a bug report, and a plea for help...

The other night, I was laying awake and saw the N810 crash in Flip Clock. I wasn't touching it, but something must have forced it out of full-screen mode. It just did it and locked up. So, I closed Flip Clock via the program manager X (If I remember correctly - I was half-asleep) and went back to bed.

Last night, with a nearly empty battery, I realised that the N810 was locked in insomniac mode. Resets nor an uninstall and reinstall of Flip Clock cleared it.

So, I'm assuming that Flip Clock modifies some system config file and keeps a backup. When exiting, it just puts that backup back in place (well, that's how I'd do it anyway) I'll assume further that the backup version now has the insomniac data locked in it.

So, my questions are: what file? And, any idea of the original N810 settings?

Any help appreciated...

David...

EDIT: Okay, I got it, after reading through the scripts. I'm not sure if it's the right way, or the easy way, but it works.

I edited ci_inti.py and set:
originalDim = 300
Which should be about 5 minutes; seemed about right to me.

After starting and stopping Flip Clock, the screen blanked as expected.
