No, that fix has been in for awhile now..  I'm guessing java/xinit may
upset something..  Try running:

dpkg --list | pastebinit

and copying us the pastebin url, so i can try to replicate it and see
if we can fix it.

The blank *img, has a specially patched u-boot, to ignore lack of
specific eeprom information, such that CircuitCo/oem can flash a empty
board.  Note it requires a special board connector to un-write-protect
the factory eeprom.

The *.tar.gz is a compressed form of the base rootfs, used to generate
all the *.img files..
