I don't believe there's a direct way of determining whether one is in offline mode (from dbus or gconf). Thanks for pointing out this problem.
hmm, one more interesting thing. when i look at the menu now, it says "normal mode" as one of the options. funny thing is that im not in offline mode. sure, the wifi isnt connected to any AP, but nor is it fully turned of, and i have bluetooth turned on but not connected to anything either.
should it not read "offline mode"?
ah, never mind. its fixed in the latest update
Edit: Ok really fixed in latest update (v. 0.8-2). Now powerlaunch itself keeps track of the offline/normal state. It should be consistent now. The only difference is that when powerlaunch is initialized/reloaded, it forces it into normal mode regardless of the previous mode so that it knows what state it's in.

On the screen lock thing i cant really pinpoint anything except that i believe i have found my n800 with the screen on but buttons locked. A combo that should not be possible Iirc as the screen turns of when the lock is turned off.
On the charge while of part its mostly that one can open the power menu while the device is charging, with on way of getting it to go away again Iirc. And i think the animation do not animate properly.
That charging bit is rectifiable by changing the config; but as the power-button hold to wake out of charging mode didn't always seem to work (and as I rarely have it shut off or play-dead charging), I haven't messed with it.

What is /etc/rc2.d/S21powered? Is it a symlink or not? The two error messages are contradictory. I'm not sure how it can be "not a symlink" and a "dangling symlink" at the same time. This seems similar to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+s...mba/+bug/48082 and the solution seems to be just "rm /etc/rc2.d/S21powered". I can't find any reason for why something like this happens in the first place.

Thanks to everyone who added to this thread! 
I used X-Terminal to launch emelFM2 as root (sudo gainroot) and deleted the S21powered file in /etc/rc2.d/, then ran dpkg --purge --force-all powerlaunch.
This reported another symlink error for a different file in /etc/rc2.d/, so I deleted that one and ran dpkg --purge --force-all powerlaunch.
This reported another symlink error for a different file, etc.
After deleting a number of files, I finally have powerlaunch unistalled!

Damn. But now I can't shut off my N800 by pressing the power button!
In desperation, I tried installing the latest powerlaunch 0.8.2 but it also didn't install correctly and is broken.
Anyone know what OS 2008 system software package is installable in Red Pill Mode that will restore the file in /etc/rc2.d/ that will allow me to shut my N800 off?

Hehe, you did the same thing as me.
Purge all off the powerlaunch again and remove all the powerlaunch files and wait a sec
(Meanwhile halt as root will power off the unit)
Ok, before I help, do you want powerlaunch or mce (the default power thing
)

Thank you for your offer of assistance qwerty12. After wasting time trying to get it fixed, I grew impatient and flashed my N800. Right now I'm about to start reinstalling everything. There goes my day off.

, I know what you mean. I reflashed 1st time this happened to me. And I've just managed to reinstall everything now after reflashing a few days ago.
Regarding the animation, it animates fine for me. The one known issue is that it doesn't detect battery state so doesn't tell you when it's fully charged. I just tested it and although I couldn't get the power menu to pop up, there is an issue of bringing it back on from the actdead state. That's something that should be fixed.
