So is bug reporting on the list appropriate, or is there some other
mechanism?

Ours is a Cobalt RAQ 550 so it's the older version.  It started as a
Stronbolt install *without* Blue Quartz, then upgraded to Centos 5 and
then Blue Onyx installed from the tarball installer.  Updates since then
have been via Blue Onyx repositories.

Odd.  I don't know where it came from, since I've not messed with Repo
settings once the Blue Onyx install was done.  I don't think the Centos
conversion/upgrade installed it, since there was no BQ or other GUI in
place.

phpsysinfo-2.5.4-0BX02 is what it showed.

I uninstalled and re-installed the package with yum, and got the same
version display after.  But afterwards, it works as you described with no
choices and a fixed theme.

Maybe the tarball has a different guts for the same version than the
repository has?

I noticed the repo package still installs the theme subdirs, including the
empty 'mobile' one.

Anyway, it seems quite happy now!  Thanks for the help.
