Tried about 5 timed....>no luck. I have a question on the default.conf file. The file that I dl'ed from here has this weired symbol, which is a square rather than just a " ' ". Can somebody post how this file should really look like. I found in another post that it should actually be 2 lines under each other. Mine looks like this:

[hildon-welcome]'filename=n900short.avi'

the other post shows it like this though:

[hildon-welcome]
filename=n900short.avi

any idea
Don't use Notepad to edit that file. It is a long story. Just use a different plain text editor. If you don't have one you could do it right on the N900 with Leafpad. (I always use vim, but it takes a bit of a learning curve. Well worth learning it though.) Download the file again and edit it afresh. Let us know if that works.
