Thanks to all who helped.

But I was not able to solve my problem, and didn't want to venture in "advanced" Xterminal exploration since I have no idea of Linux. So I just downloaded the Nokia Software Updater and did a firmware update through that method. Although I had to re-install all the apps I had beforehand, but at least it was the safer route for me. Now I am on PR1.1.1. Hopefully I won't have to do this all over again when PR 1.2 comes out...what a pain!.

Thanks !
