Hi there i'm having problems getting this to work any help would be much appreciated.

First off i'm on a PW2 UK Serial: 9017.

I've just done the 5.6.5 jail break (first time i've jail broken this device incase this is relevant) following MJ52's post in the other thread.
Installed KUAL (KUAL-KDK-2.0.azw2) didn't install the helper file (but the helper menu shows anyway so i assume this is unnecessary)
Installed MRPI
Put the "Update_linkss_0.24.N_install_pw2_kt2_kv_pw3.b in" inside the "mrpackages" folder and ran "Install Mr Packages" from the KUAL helper menu
Got "the screensavers hack has been successfully installed" when i put it to sleep.

All good so far?

Put custom screensavers in "linkss" folder used the "restart framework" button in the screen savers menu
It restarts, i put the screen to sleep and get my custom image, wake it up, put it back to sleep again and no image is displayed just the text from the book im currently reading.
So i figure hmm one of the other images i put in must not be the right format for the hack. I delete them all except the one that was showing the first time. Reset, still doesn't work.

So do i need to install python or is that only if you want to display the cover of the book you're currently reading?

How do i uninstall the screensaver hack? I've tried putting the "Update_linkss_0.24.N_uninstall.bin" in "mrpackages" and running "install MR packages" but it doesn't get rid of it? Is it supposed to be placed in the root and then run somehow?

I sincerely apologise if this has already been answered but i did do a search and couldn't find anything that matched up with my particular circumstances.
