@NiLuJe-
I can also confirm that JB and MKK survive update to 5.6.1 and that the MR Installer functions....I have installed the screensaver hack and python and they appear to have installed (proper folders can be seen in the root directory) however I am unable to get any version of the screensaver hack to work. I have reinstalled both the python and screensaver bins through the MR Installer individually and together multiple times and have done multiple restarts (USB cable not attached) with no joy. Also, when I try to do a framework restart through KUAL, it hangs on the tree screen.... suggestions?

Just read latest post... will try snapshots.
