As to how I got to the state where recent sorting didn't work was:
  1. Registered my kindle (fw. 5.6.2.1)
  2. Disconnected wifi
  3. Upgraded to fw 5.6.5
  4. Serial jailbreak device

I was planning to never connect my Kindle to the internet again. Had a nasty auto fw upgrade on my PW1

The semi-colon is part of the 'dump messages' command.

Open one of the just created log(book)s -

Right! They could have made looking up what date is set a bit easier.

See my thread about blocking updates in the "PW-3", FW-5.6.1.1 ..." thread - -
Should work on all "5.6.x" firmwares.

That will let you use your Wifi again.

Once your comfortable with that - -
Install KUAL and the date/time setting button.
That uses the international ntp network, rather than Amazon.
I.E: It will (**should**) work even if you have the BBB (Block Big Brother) firewall installed and enabled.

PS: Let me know if that ntpdate extension works on 5.6.5 -
I might have to update it.
