Strange behavior w/ SS hack

I just had a really strange experience w/ my Kindle 3, pre special offers with jailbreak .10N and SS .25N... I've had this setup for a long time, but a few weeks ago I got tired of my screensavers and decided to simplify to just one. I deleted a bunch of unwanted screensavers (actually, moved them to another folder) and rebooted. For almost two weeks it has worked as expected, only showing the one image. I've not plugged it into a computer since, so nothing should have changed.

And then, today... suddenly it's showing all of my old screensavers again! I plugged it into the computer, and sure enough, they're back and the folder I'd moved them into is gone!!!

I've been having a lot of strange stuff going on lately... I wonder if they're related. I'm afraid that I'm starting to have filesystem corruption and failures as I've had images get corrupted as well. Looks like it's about time to uninstall my hacks, delete all of my books, do a full factory reset, and try again.


BTW, as an aside... is there a safe way to basically do a "format"? Does the factory reset do that?
