got this from the desire forum:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=902941&page=4

downloaded it, modified the source to avoid mmap at 0, which doesn't work for us, compiled it and I've got root on the original 2.1update1 version from SE. you can do the same with the original source or download my binary.
the only change I did was to mmap at 4092. all credits should go to scotty who pulled us from our misery :).

after you get rootted you know what to do: mount rw, copy su, busybox, etc.

Good Job sonty. We don't need now return from updated 2.1 back to 1.6 root it and again flashing to 2.1. Its really easier and faster method I think.

Maybe we try to replace old exploit from superoneclick to the new one from this thread?
i have no chance to try it because i have already rooted device, but.. maybe it will work. I need testers :)

Do I understand right, I just have to download the attached SOC to my PC and then it's possible to Root X8 2.1, without downgrading or something else? Great Job!!

I rooted with this program. So my questions are:

1. How to delete apps. I tried Root uninstaller and AppRemover, they say that the app is deleted, but it's not.

2. When i update to 2.0.2 will this root work again?
