After changing root password, I can't set brightness in the status menu, even though I have changed "rootme" to my pw in /opt/hackybrightness/hackybrightness.sh also.

Is there a way to un/re-install this applet?

EDIT:
Now there's a problem: somehow I managed to get into unwanted situation where I can't use, install or uninstall this applet.

Trying to install:
Code:
N9-07-1_PR_001:~# dpkg -i system-ui-hackybrightness-control_0.0.2_armel\ \(1\).deb
Aegis rejecting system-ui-hackybrightness-control_0.0.2_armel (1).deb: package 'system-ui-hackybrightness-control' already installed from 'com.nokia.maemo/local' -- not replacing it from unknown origin
aegis aborting dpkg -- all listed package files rejected
Compilation failed in require.
Trying to uninstall:
Code:
N9-07-1_PR_001:~# dpkg -r system-ui-hackybrightness-control
dpkg: warning: ignoring request to remove system-ui-hackybrightness-control which isn't installed.
...and the brightness bar does not appear in the status bar/menu. Any ideas how to overcome this problem?

Reinstallation succeeded with dpkg -iB. Then set my pw again in hackybrightness.sh. And suddenly it's working!
