well, possibly :-)
I was assuming white meant "white", wherever it comes from...

BTW, tip about USB charging screen.

It is just a translator's error (or laziness, or something non-understandable). Strings in blanket.po with ids usb.screen.header, usb.screen.message, usb.screen.message_nc are left empty. But they should contain appropriate messages.
Yes, in *this* particular case that's true. For ru_RU, the gettext messages are indeed empty, so this is expected. However, for (almost all) other locales I tested, they are *not* empty, yet I *still* get an "empty" screen (no text). (For example, "pl" locale). Could you test the pl locale on your device and report back, please?

After a downloading of blanket.po for Russian language, adding of missing messages, compiling to .mo and copying compiled blanket.mo to Kindle at /usr/share/locale/ru/LC_MESSAGES, I am seeing localized Russian text at USB charging screen.

Hmmm... after only installing the ru_RU install package (and doing nothing else), my Kindle gives:
Code:
[root@kindle root]# cat /var/local/system/locale 
LANG=ru_RU.utf8
LC_ALL=ru_RU.utf8
Is this different for you? (I'm expecting "ru_RU.UTF-8" to be the result of the update, not "ru.UTF-8")
