As we all talked about here, sliderotate will flash the kernel. Giving us a diablo with rotation support and the sliderotate function. The community SSU also gives us rotation support but no sliderotate. I have a problem with that, I like sliderotate!
So here is what I did: I am currently up to date with the SSU. Now I used the sliderotate.install. What this did was flash the kernal, adding rotation support, and give me the sliderotate function. But I didn't need to kernal flash, and I now am not current with the SSU (or so I understand, I welcome corrections :P). So know what happens is a get an update in application manager, for the OS. It has a red exclamation and the update says it's 'broken, but able to update'.
Now I remember having this problem early in the SSU testing. The problem (as I understand) was the hacked kernal from slide rotate. What fixed it was updating with SSU WITHOUT sliderotate. So I thought it was happening again. I went ahead and installed the update. But this time it worked.
Now I could be wrong, but I believe I am now up to date with the Community SSU and have the sliderotate function.
I am very pleased ^_^
