done.
maybe anyone can point how to share this little mod without getting trouble. ;D

I'm not on anyone's side but I do understand where he's coming from. Your thread as a whole is great and is full of nice mods. But do avoid posting a copy and paste of someone else's words. Everyone will think that you wrote them even if it isn't. So you are basically claiming it as your own words.

If it's pretty much a copy and paste from somehwere else (which I can clearly see that it is for that Reboot button), it would be better to just post the link to that site with the instructions. You can however freely modify the instructions and post it as yours if your instructions use different methods/easier wording etc.

thats why you must always put a link to original source. unless you want to ruin your reputation.

Polemics for nothing... if he reposted something he read somewhere else without making a gain from it (he isn't even getting visits on his site/blog with that), and eventually changing it in part, why complain?
He's helping those who cannot find the instructions from the original poster after all... important is to share the knowledge...
Think of opensource software.. do you know which part is coded by who? no, but we all can use it..
(if he wants to post a link to the source it's kind, but I wouldn't find it necessary)

Just my opinion. Thanks for the mods f2thak, or whoever wrote them originally. Keep it up.

@thecursedfly,
To be more proper, he should have posted the link and that's it. (with a description of what the mod does)
Then you would have gone to that site and read that article from the source.
f2thak still gets thanks for posting that link. Everyone is happy.

Not gaining anything? Isn't gaining reputation nothing? You can make a name for yourself without making a single dime. Sometimes, that is worth more than money.

Information is not the same as open source. I write articles / reviews of stuff myself. If someone just posts them in some forum without a single mention of me or my site, people will all think he wrote them. He gets the rep/fame. I get nothing.

Same thing can happen here. http://my-maemo.com isn't getting recognised one little bit for writing that article and spending the time doing so.

f2thak, it's great to have all these mods in one thread. Very useful. Hence this thread became so big in such a short time. I guess we are just saying, be more careful. =)

me too bro, looks like a great piece of work!!
