Re: UN46B8500 Firmware question

Telnet worked. I used Putty to connect to port 23. No problem. Asked me for login, I typed "root". It said: -sh: id: not found but it let me in. I could list with "ls" and change directories. I used some UNIX commands I learned 15 years ago :)

What's next?

It didn't. All the widgets/...

Re: UN46B8500 Firmware question

Something funky is going on here. When I disconnect the network cable it still goes into the widget section, with a yellow triangle in each snippets corner indicating there's no connection. The second I go into the widget gallery and try to move up or down all controls freeze, I'm forced to pull the...
