I did exactly the same thing and it did work for me (don't you hate replies like that ;)
Just looking at the obvious: how long after restarting did you wait to test the changes. I think there is a minute-or-2 delay until the changes are checked. BTW - I delete the jetspeed.log file everytime I reboot. *I* don't use it for anything other than debugging, so I don't let it get so big. Which file are you "changing" to local-portlets.xreg? Do you mean to say you "renamed" portlets.xreg to local-portlets.xreg? The idea is that when you update Jetspeed source, the portlets.xreg is replaced, while local-*.xreg is untouched. Maybe this implies that there needs to be a portlets.xreg file as well - even if you do not use its portlets(?). Are any portlets showing up? Another hint is be sure to look at the log file carefully - Often in the plethora of messages I find my error is represented by a single entry. This entry might not even *appear* to be an error - ie, entries similar to "file not found, using default value...". An error is especially difficult to find in a 185MB log file.
