It's impressive and I'd love to keep it...BUT: it screws up GPE Calendar because each appointment is displayed in white on pale yellow which is illegible, and I haven't found any way to reconfigure the colours (if anyone has this info for GPE or LCARS please let me know). The only buglet in the Home interface was that there was no image showing for the web icon (top LH corner). So I went back to Adria. There does still seem to be some instability in the diversion and replacement of icons, as the second icon down on the LH side was missing. Reinstalled, and now the tray at the top showed new (LCARS) icons which weren't there before. Gave up on finding any info on how to fix GPE Calendar colours, so I went to use Balaton and uninstalled the packages entirely. The tray icons still show LCARS (not a problem) and the sounds are still there :-) but the second icon down is back, but the top one and the third one are missing entirely. > Reflashing the firmware will hopefully clear things up.

The current settings are workable, and if I can find a way to fix the GPE colours when LCARS is active, I'd go back to LCARS permanently. ///Peter
