sudo gainroot
apt-get install --reinstall hildon-desktop; killall hildon-desktop
exit

(the last command logs me out of the root account and back into my user account).

I don't know what you do to get root access on your phone though.
it says it cannot be reiinstallation of hildon desktop isn't possible, packages have unmet dependencies...


God i want my old version back, no more of this rotate thing

how do i get the original hildon desktop back? (not the cssu one, as op sais in the original post)

can i do it by installing the maemo5-"update" that shows up in the HAM after installing portait mode?

there are too many things that dont really work with that mode yet (especially the image viewer, that doesnt allow rotating pictures properly anymore)

msa, if you are interested in trying the next release of cssu (though I have no idea when that might be), it might be better just to use the orientation lock until then - that would solve the problem with the image viewer etc.

I don't know how to revert to the original hildon desktop. I would probably just reflash and restore from backup.

i just reinstalled using the .deb from Fremantle SDK packages:
http://maemo.org/packages/package_in...2.2.140-1+0m5/

It's the only package available for download.

At those *****ing about uninstalling the rotating desktop (and now wanting to downgrade to the stock CSSU one): Uninstall CSSU, whether by reflashing or whatever other method you can dig up.

A better idea for the future - don't install stuff that's new and shiny, AND, an even better idea than that, don't fiddle with settings you don't understand - i.e. someone's complaining about the image viewer not rotating images correctly - hildon-desktop rotation has nothing to do (at least, it shouldn't) with app rotation. If the image viewer and other apps are autorotating, that means you went into the CSSU features configuration app (or manually did this in the theme/system transition.ini files) and turned on forced rotation - which was intentionally put in there for CSSU developing/testing, not for end users.
