Error when trying to start Kual

When trying to start Kual, I get this error message: "The title failed to close properly" (see screenshot). Kual used to work fine until I had a problem with my USB connection which also for some reason reset my system clock to 1 Jan 1970 0:00 (I managed to set that back to the current time and date using the shell commands date and hwclock -w). I removed and reinstalled Kual but to no avail. Any suggestions?

The broken date would have prevented it to start in the first place, for sure. (Prefer Amazon's setdate (or settime, can never remember. It takes an epoch) script to doing stuff by hand, or the UI doesn't necessarily get the memo).

Obvious question is obvious: what happens if you restart the device?

Less obvious question: is it one of those DX hacked to run FW 3.x?

Nothing (other than, well, the device restarting, but the problem persists).

Nope, it still runs 2.5.8. Also, I should add that other kindlets as well as launchpad still run fine.

Check the syslog for slightly less useless details than the popup offers?

Looks like nothing in the syslog about it...
