Get a beer, or two, or five... cheers!
Thanks for the intervention :P, I hate to beat the dead horse, but I hate to have my actions misinterpreted. I was not trying to make a personal attack, but was just defending myself from the interpretation that my corrections and failure to answer questions are "trolling". I also apologize to geekmaster for saying that that the tar exploit was fixed years ago. I admit that was a statement without justification and I'm sorry to lead you down the wrong path.

Now in terms of Kindle news. It seems that the lipc command to change orientation does not work anymore, but the code to change orientation still works. Can someone check this in SSH to double check and then look for a new way to activate rotation? Someone emailed me a while ago saying they managed to rotate the home screen also, but I never got an update from them.
