Just an update:

I was able to restore the original screensavers with

dd if=/mnt/us/mmcblk0p1.img of=/dev/mmcblk0p1 bs=4K, which was kinda freaky since I'm a relative noob.

Anyway, now that I am running the vanilla OS, I have to wait for the update to filter from amazon. I think I read about a way to download the update and install it manually, so if my kindle doesn't "find" it on it's own in an hour or two I might try that.

thanks so much for your help!
