I figured, I was just noting that I don't think OMweather was causing my issue because it wasn't enabled.

I am using Modest with auto-retrieve as well.
I've just started having the issue since Diablo install. No OMW, Statusbarclock, Personal Menu, Load Applet, Advanced Backlight, OR GPE summary.

Only desktop item I have is maemo-control-services, to disable metalayer crawler.
Nevermind, my symptoms were different, so don't rule those out on my account.

I have maemo control services as well (for the same reason) but it doesn't run in the desktop as an applet.

In my case, the resets occur during an idle period (usually when the n810 is in the case) and I tunr it on to find the desktop reset.

This leads me to believe its one of those apps causing the crash since they are constantly running on the desktop.

FYI, I haven't seen a desktop reset since I turned off Auto-retrieve in Modest. I think it was causing the desktop crashes by trying to retrieve when I wasn't connected to any network.

Would have help if it had happened while I was watching rather than when the machine was idle.

My desktop has been resetting at least twice a day since I flashed to Diablo. Yesterday I turned off the alarms in Large Statusbar Clock and it hasn't reset since.

I'm running OMWeather, Large Statusbar clock, Personal Menu, Load Applet, Advanced Backlight applet, and Modest auto retrieve of headers is turned on.

I found that the gpe summary from the testing repo was causing the desktop to reset. I uninstalled it and installed from the normal extras and the problem went away.

Same problem here - desktop resets once a day at least since I installed Diablo....

But in my case I do not have OmWeather installed at all, so dont think that is the culprit.
I do have Statusbar Large clock, Personal menu, Advanced Backlight applet an Modest auto check installed ... now which one of these is the culprit - difficult to find out....

But again this happens only on my N810.
On my wife's N800 with Diablo and Personal Menu, Omweather, Advanced Backlight applet and Statusbar Large clock, the same reset problem has not happened once.

That leaves Modest - (very weak asuumption though) as one app of many others.

Alsong with desktop resets I also get a screen freeze up on the N810 - whenever I connect to a network (over BT mostly) and when I start Modest or browser or sometimes just randomly.

I guess this is a irrtating Diablo bug, as with Modest installed on OS2008 (pre-diablo) this never happened.

It never happened to me until i allowed the alarm in the large status bar. I have disabled alarms..... now let see if that is the culprit.
