Hello and looking for help

Hi,
I'm found the great fix for the switch to screensaver after 10 mins. ebs posted a fix that makes the screen shown after going to sleep, the same last viewed screen before going to sleep.

After 2 tries I am unsuccessful in the install. I'm copying the one install .bin file to the Kindle DX root directory, ejecting the Kindle DX from my PC and choosing "Update Your Kindle". During the ensuing process I get a message saying "The update was NOT successful. Your Kindle is restarting". The log file generated says: "
install: screensaver-lp v0.03, Sat Sep 19 17:48:22 UTC 2009
/opt/amazon/ebook/lib/framework-impl.jar md5sum mismatch (5e639281b34f94e309ab4e7fede70c75), aborting...
"

Any suggestions on what I may be doing wrong are most appreciated. Is it correct that the one - and only - file to transfer to the Kindle DX root directory is "update_screensaver-lp_install.bin" and none of the other files that come from decompressing the .zg file that was posted?

Again, thank you in advance for any advice you can offer. This fix will really enhance my Kindle, which I am otherwise very happy with.

Welcome to MR! I can't help with your problem, but I'm sure some-one more knowledgeable will be along soon.

In the meantime, you could post the question in the Kindle forums here on MR as well.
