This seems like a relevant place to ask...

I've installed PR1.3 Global OTA through App Manager (on my Vodafone UK N900). This has installed fine. But before doing so, I didn't uninstall the Power Kernel, which I was using to overclock (nicely stable at 900MHz, very pleased!).

Of course installing PR1.3 has removed the power kernel, and of course the OC. Which is fine, but I'm stuck with the Power Kernel uninstallation icon in the menu. When I try to uninstall it can't, complaining that it can't restore to the Nokia Kernel, and I can't uninstall it through the Application Manager either, as it complains that I should do it through the app menu.

So what am I supposed to do when the next revision of the Power Kernel comes out and I want to install it so I can have some OC goodness? Am I going to have to reflash or restore to factory defaults from the Settings menu? or does anyone have any bright ideas?

I'm not adverse to getting down and dirty in xterm if thats what it resorts to, provided someone has some decent instructions (long time Windows-fiddler and PC overclocker, relative newbie at Linux, having only installed Ubuntu when I got my N900 so I could flash easily and safely).

Thank you very much in advance for any help given
