Please be more specific. I have encountered no problems with JPEGs or
O-Pro, and since reflashing I've used O-Pro to edit a monthly newsletter
without issue -- a process that from experience will invariably cause things
to go wrong if they are going to do so.
The issue with PrivateEye seems to be due to the use of an unstable test
version of the software which coincided with the re-flash.

Back at the start of the noise, there were a load of short posts from people
saying "I've done the re-flash; it worked fine." One or two individuals
seem to be having issues; so far, the cause is far from clear (but in Alex's
case, it looks like a long-standing !Boot problem and not a ROM issue).

It's in the archives, isn't it?

It's self-contained.
