SSU hiding problem solved. General Antilles put his finger on it at the beginning of this thread, but I didn't put 2 and 2 together.

Seems my osso-software-version had been deleted. How, I know not. I certainly didn't do it directly. Anyway, for my n800 I did "apt-get install osso-software-version-rx34" and the OS2008 Feature Upgrade 36-5 finally showed up in app manager.

Use "apt-get install osso-software-version-rx44" for the n810.

Now here's hoping I don't get the reboot loop...

UPDATE: Everything installed OK, and I now have pre-ssu diablo on flash, and 4.2008.36-5 on SD (with "About product" showing proper versions in each case).

If you're talking about penguinbait's bootmenu.deb, then unless he updated it already, I don't think so.

Installing bootmenu is simple enough, though. Especially if you previously had a working installation via penguinbait's stuff.

Download the newest init_flasher (link posted by fanoush earlier in the thread) to an ext2/3 partition (~/MyDocs/.documents/ will do), then untar it, cd to where you untarred it, then copy your existing bootmenu.conf file (I think it's in /root/install-tools/) to your current directory, then run ./init_flash

That worked for me.

Err, that was from yesterday's memory, so I may have botched some names/directories, but you get the point.

Facebook and Hotmail give me browser unsupported messages.

facebook was doing that before the latest ssu iirc, try the user agent switch.

the basic problem is that microb is not id-ing itself as firefox, and facebook wants to make sure their ajax features work...

I wasn't getting the update either so I did the "apt-get install osso-software-version-rx44" on the n810. I am now getting the infamous reboot loop (before the update...). I needed a fresh flash anyway...

Is there a way to force a Diablo update...? I'm still waiting for it to show up on my device.

If it doesn't show up when you go to app manager>check for updates and hit that circular icon on the bottom right corner, then you might have to do this.

Penguinbait updated bootmenu installer! See http://www.internettablettalk.com/fo...0&postcount=24

Y'know... I read through some 200-odd messages here yesterday, mostly preaching doom and gloom regarding this update... I was almost trepidatious when I arrived within my WiFi zone last night...

. I had development stuff on the tablet
. I had SVN versions of software on the tablet
. I had the "browser fix" .deb installed on the tablet
. I had bora, chinook, and diablo apps installed on the tablet
. I had no problem with Modest not notifying me about mail (IMAP/Gmail), but didn't want one, either.
. Regardless, I chose to "install"
. Immediately got a message about the "browser fix", so I removed that via the Application Manager, and chose to 'install' the upgrade.
. I have had no problems whatsoever!

okay, okay... The "contacts" applet was on my screen... and the Tableteer applet was on the screen, but c'mon... that's easily solved. Yeah, a bunch of PDF documentation was re-installed in my documents directory, but I cleaned it out without trouble... and, yeah, my extras repository was disabled, so I re-enabled it.

No rebooting loops, no removing batteries, no reflashing the tablet, and no real issues... reading here, one might think that I was the exception to the norm -- but I'm willing to bet I'm just being more vocal about my experience than the rest of the 'silent majority'.

Very cool. That did it. Thanks,.
