[maemo-users] Alarm setting

[From: Denis Dimick]

Jerry and Hugo,

I did try to use the --reinstall option, it forced the reinstall, however,
it didn't bring back the application. I suspect I may have malf'ed it up
during one of the clock installs, I've tried just about all of them.

I tried a backup/restore, from a few weeks ago, still didn't work. I finally
ended up having to re-flash the O/S to get it working again.

I know if I just understood the n810 a little better, I may not have had to
re-flash it, but that's not the case currently.

Thanks again for yours and everyone else on the list that replyed to me,

Denis
