Try reverting the kernel to the previous release, if the tablet works, try upgrading the kernel again.

How can I do that? The tablet won't boot completely so I can't do anything in this state.

Just a question, do you have CSSU installed?

Yes.

Using a usb cable, enable R&D mode and set the no-lifeguard-reset flag:
"flasher-3.0 --enable-rd-mode --set-rd-flags no-lifeguard-reset"
That will allow your device to fully boot. Then you can have a look at what is crashing (hildon-input-method?) and make changes.
Once you have done the changes, you can disable R&D mode

I upgraded both N8x0 oldies over the weekend. The N800 rebooted successfully after the kernel flash, and shutdown without crashing using the ASUI button, so all seemed well.
Will turn it on again tonight, just to make sure :-)

So, what was my mistake? I'm afraid to install newest packages again because I'm a noob, he,he.

As the old proverb says "you have to break a few eggs to make an omelette" :D
(and funny enough, the proverb is the same both in spanish and in english)

Ok. I understand. Here I go again.

I have the old packages just successfully installed. Aplication manager has seen the gps-guard package to upgrade and I have done it. Now I have to download the upgraded packages, right? And the kernel image too, right?

Thanks in advance.

The omelette will be done by this afternoon!

P.D.: I've seen 'zImage' package deleted. There is some reason? Is it better not to install it?

Right, but there is no standalone kernel image because...

...it is included in the kernel-dt-sd package.

And today we have a nice sunny weather for a picnic in the country. I'll bring in the cider :D :D

Confirmed : ye ole N800 boots up (and shuts down) just fine... so well, in fact, that it just breaks my heart :-)

I doubt it I'm running the old kernel:

~$ uname -a
Linux noname 2.6.21-omap1#6 PREEMPT Sat Feb 19 10:59:14 CET 2011 armv6l unknown

(if for old kernel you mean the community update kernel, that was the first time I installed diablo turbo).
