That's what I found after watching the video at least, and it successfully enabled landscape for me.
Edit: I have not applied the new transitions files yet so I don't know if the landscape change is included with what he posted too.

and go through the steps, written by me, so I can vouch they work...

copy "usr" folder from zip file to MyDocs (which is root directory when connected to PC via USB)
you then need to run xterminal and type:
devel-su [press enter]
rootme [press enter]
cd /home/user/MyDocs [press enter]
mv /usr/ / [press enter]
.
but the last step..
mv /usr/ / [press enter]
wouldn't that just take the root usr folder and move it to root.. hence no change ??
