This sounds like Desktop crashing. If you have RSS applet enabled
in Desktop *and* the Hacker edition is based on a version earlier than
the latest N800 release, it could be a the crasher bug in RSS applet
that was fixed to the latest release (once it got a feed item with
"a strange" URL, the applet always crashed (Desktop) immediately after
applet had been loaded by the Desktop).
- Eero
PS. In gnome Desktop the crasher bugs in panel applets are not so fatal
because they are run as separate processes. You notice this easily from
the Gnome desktop memory usage...
