I have been noticing something unusual on my K1 about residual update_install effects. I last used an install.sh that does "animation" on the eink display. Whenever my kindle wakes up from screensaver mode, my install animation runs, every time (including when I plug in the USB cable while it is showing a screensaver). None of the usual update install screens are displayed, so it seems otaup is not running. I wonder if this happens (but with no apparent visual evidence) on newer kindles...

I am curious though why waking up from a screensaver (or even launches a residual update_install script (firmware version 1.0.8). And when plugged into USB, it seems to wake itself up periodically (about every 3 or 4 screensavers) for no apparent reason, catching my attention because of my animation install scripts that keeps spontaneously running...

To be safe, I suppose install scripts should clean up and delete themselves, to prevent this (hidden in most cases) phenomenon.
