Hi cacapee, the hacks I installed have nothing to do (I beleive) with that display.

I used the hack builder to install: small menu font, direct page control, clock, delete book, total page counter. I lost the possibility to change slideshow settings. After installing the hacks all my pictures were shown for half a second. If I wanted to see picture one out of three, the display went immediately to picture three and blinked every half a second. I couldn't set slideshow to off. Finally, I discovered that I can restore default settings, which include "slideshow off". But now, I cannot use the slideshow, which is useless anyway for poor quality gray rendering of color photos (you should see my Archos 704 color slideshow - more vivid than on my laptop).

So, the hack of status bar in landscape mode is probably - in a way - of your making. I process pdfs through your pdflrf with 90 degrees rotation, and it is displayed in Sony's portrait mode with the status bar down there.
The status bar is displayed in landscape when I push the size button to change from portrait to landscape. What happens is that the lrf page is split in two vertically and I can see scaled up half pages separately. Very useful for maps, less convenient - but sometimes necessary - for texts in small fonts.
