sampieter, thanks for the fresh install and walkthrough! A few points:[*] I heard today that the extras repository should be back up and working, so Flip will be extras shortly which means no more manual "gainroot" and apt-get installs... that will make things much easier for fresh installs![*] Very strange about the no insomniac mode... I don't know what would cause it not to operate at all! It sounds almost like the x86 or Fremantle version is being installed... very strange though; many updates have happened since 0.9.4 (I did finally fix the 24 hour thing... hopefully!), so I'll put out another preview in the next day or two; please try manually removing Flip, then try installing the newer version when I get it up to see if that fixes things.[*] flipAlarmSync should be in /usr/sbin. The program /usr/bin/flipclockSync is just a shell script that calls /usr/sbin/flipAlarmSync; you should be able to run either one manually if you need to... not sure why flipAlarmSync isn't visible to you, but if flipclockSync works, then flipAlarmSync is installed and running properly...

Everyone else... thanks for all the feedback guys! I kind of got lost a bit there with the random comments and things, can somebody who was involved in that discussion (Den, iamNarada, somebody?) please summarize what the desired results/conclusions were? I got the "clock changes theme from day to night at times of the day" part, but what was all that about snoozing and brightness and things?..

Thanks!
