Yeah, there's another thread (here) with the same symptoms, so, apparently, we're not alone .

Just happened to me, and appart from jumping once or twice between the book and the two default dictionaries, I didn't do anything else than read the same book since the last wakeup from sleep.

The partial refreshes (ie. the underline under the selected book in the Home screen) didn't seem to be affected, but I didn't test that very thoroughly, so I may be mistaken.

It didn't go away after a restart (and I mean restart (ie. reboot), not a reset to factory defaults, let's try to make that clear to avoid confusions/useless reset to factory defaults ), so I let it go to sleep. Picked it up about 15min later, and it seems to be doing fine.

It's 5am here, so I'll try to take a look at my logs tomorrow, see if something pops out...

Something definitey seems fishy on the software side of things, and the new kernel based on the -rt branch doesn't help, IMHO. (It tends to be pretty unforgiving of buggy hardware/kernel drivers/software and race conditions). I'm far from being an expert, but putting a half-tested semi-official Real Time linux kernel patchset on an embedded non-x86 device with brand new hardware seems pretty ballsy to me ^^.

On a sidenote: Editing the title of your first post doesn't seem to change the title of the *thread* itself. Any way to change that behaviour, or is that on purpose, dear mods? . (I've experienced it in my font hack thread, and it is mildly annoying ^^. Unless I missed something obvious somewhere to edit the title of one's thread?)
