I've yet to re-install it after my problems with the reboot thing, from the sounds of it Gabba, you gotta be quick and as soon as the desktop is shown you gotta click the applets setting, took me at least 6x to get it on mine.
When I downloaded omweather_0.20.2_armel.deb it will not install from application manager nor as update from application manager, however, when I use apt-get
Sadly I don't seem to get anything like 10-15 seconds; 2 or 3 seconds is more like it. I can click on "Home", get the drop down menu, and click on "Select Applets..." but before anything is displayed, the big White OMWeather Window Of Death takes over and my N800 is frozen. I have tried about 10 times now (both switching off and removing the battery) but the same thing happens every time.
Any further suggestions? I really, really don't want to have to do a hard reset.
Do you have open ssh installed? I wonder if you can ssh into your tablet, then apt-get remove omweather? Just a thought. (Take my syntax with a grain of salt... if you are new to ssh or apt-get, I would suggest some more research before trying this.) Good luck!
Just switch to the other thread, think carefully about the ten pages of messages, and the answer is obvious, what's wrong with y'all!
I just uninstalled Omweather and found the very latest deb file for os2008 on the Maemo site and installed it, and all my problems were over. I don't know if that works for everyone. The stuff about acting within 10-15 seconds mentioned by deeteroderdas didn't occur to me, and I don't think I did that.

The problem was/is the fact that as soon as you booted, you got a big white window at the front and you could do nothing else except bring up the power button menu...
With that window there, all other stylus inputs were being blocked.
It would be nice if Maemo/Hildon had a "close" button in the upper right corner of every window.

I have exactly the same problem. How do you do a hard reset?
By the way, am I the only one who finds that navy on black is almost unreadable? I find light blue on black bad enough, or can I change the background and text on these forums?
