How often do you reboot anyway?
The point is I avoid rebooting so why make rebooting faster, if I never have to.

This 20 minutes all depends on variables, state of the battery and it's capacity, temperature; also we are working from rough timings and amperes.

I do agree BME is balls and shows that it has eaten the whole battery after two boot cycles, whereas from or calculations it's more like 1%.
Either way more CPU cycles equal more current.

Take the example calculations again this shows it is better (more battery saving) to keep the device on over switching it off, unless you are switching off for more than 20-30 minutes.

I did not find /etc/Xsession.* on mine, only /etc/X11/Xsession.* :)

Removed the dots and... nothing bad happened ;) I was expecting a blank screen for an uncomfortably long time but nothing like that. The dots were quite unnecessary indeed. Thanks, reinob!

Simple list of what packages and files can be removed, I guess.
No warranty! Own risk!

apt-get remove --purge cherry
rm /etc/X11/Xsession.d/34cherry
apt-get remove --purge hildon-welcome
rm /etc/X11/Xsession.d/10hildon_welcome
rm /etc/X11/Xsession.post/04hildon-welcome-wait
apt-get remove --purge hildon-welcome-default-logo
rm -r /etc/hildon-welcome.d
apt-get remove --purge osso-startup-wizard
rm /etc/X11/Xsession.d/30osso_startup_wizard
apt-get remove --purge hildon-startup-progress
rm /etc/event.d/hildon-startup-progress
rm /etc/X11/Xsession.d/01xprogress
rm /etc/X11/Xsession.post/22xprogress-stop


Note: those last 2 files weren't even present on my device, however I didn't even purge hildon-startup-progress yet.

Interesting...however if you remove theme alpha AND beta...You will have no themes. You need at east one theme surely?

That's why he wrote:

But yeah, generally it is not wise to delete the default themes (I think they are optified anyway).

Just did a boot-up and no adverse effects so far :D After the NOKIA logo the screen goes blank and boots IMO faster to desktop than before (could be a placebo effect)...


IMO it would be easier if -y is added to every line of apt-get purge but then its safer to not put it in so that a user can see for himself what is being removed and object to it...


Edit: For the record, I'm running on latest CSSU-thumb with kernel-powerr51

That's why I initially commented out these purge commands, same goes for hildon-games-wrapper0, I am not sure what it does, but my guess is that it can be deleted if you delete the games too...


Also it was more of a scrap/script/note than a real script meant to be run. However I made it runable, for the ease of it...

Edit: Anybody an idea what this package might be, osso-systemui-splashscreen ?
Code:
# Remove splashscreen (UNSURE)
# apt-get purge osso-systemui-splashscreen
Shutdown splash?
Boot up splash is in NOLO, AFAIK...

Re: Faster Booting Nokia N900
 
You could probably get rid of 'test server'. It has a bunch of start up scripts as well. I have removed the 'beta' theme on my device ages ago, leaving the alpha theme.

You can also ditch 'osso-startup-wizard' and all of it's startup scripts, however it means if you remove the battery for too long, the system clock will need to be set by hand. It also does something with locales as well, never figured it out.

If you do not have a sim-lock code or device lock code you could probably get rid of the instance of matchbox window manager that is started up prior to hildon to contain the 'enter lock codes' screens.

Maybe it's famous screenshot of "settings", that is show while settings are loaded, to give fake impression of settings getting loader quickly, than they are in reality?

AFAIK, CSSU does same thing with settings, but using their own method. Either way, both things seem useless, if it's really this.

My understanding is that it is the initial screen of all default games. The only thing that changes is the bitmap covering the top half of the screen. If you remove games, you can safely remove this package too. I have done it without a problem, but then put it back because I decided I wanted mahjong after all.

No idea. I have removed it and hildon-welcome, as well as grepped for and deleted everything with splash in the name, but I am still getting the Nokia logo on startup, albeit not on shutdown. So your theory might be right.

The nokia logo on startup is built onto NOLO.

It is possible to change/remove it but that will not make your n900 boot any faster at all.

No! that's not it. It is the splash screen (with sound) you see when shutting down the N900. I would NOT remove it until it's understood what exactly it does (as side effects).

For disabling the screenshots (which I also dislike), just chmod a-w /home/user/.cache/launch and delete all files in that folder. From that point on, no new screenshots will be saved there.

Yes. Removing testserver is completely safe. It will only be used when Maemo starts in TEST mode, which getbootstate decides if the BSI value returned by the battery is within a specific range, which never happens (or should happen) with a normal battery.

Yes, read that some weeks earlier and chmodded launch folder. Since then no dumb old screenshots during loading, just black screen. But it is not a second faster.

Better delete first and chmod after that. ;)

You are correct, it is not any faster. It does stop the annoying effect of pressing the screen too early and displaying a compressed image that is usually wrong.

I wonder, what does "testserver" do, *if* device is run in TEST mode? Provides some useful debug info, or what?

I wonder, what does "testserver" do, *if* device is run in TEST mode? Provides some useful debug info, or what?
Wait until I post the complete boot process of the N900 :)

Just type your password that you may have set; it won't be printed on-screen but certainly the input would be registered...You just have to press enter when done :D

You probably need to rootsh installed and then write the password you have set ;)

reinob,

Regarding the launch image for settings located in /home/user/.cache/launch removing the folder deletes it only till the next time you open settings again...

Is there a script that does this creation which can be disabled?


Thanks!

Thanks! Sometimes the human mind forgets the simplest of solutions but tries to make things complicated :rolleyes:

Well, I didn't say you have to remove the folder (because you're right, it will be created again). My advice was to remove write permissions, so that nobody will be able to write in there, but nobody will try to re-create the folder. It's worked for me since more-or-less the first day I bought my first N900..

NOLO is the bootloader. Without it you can forget about using your N900 for anything.

Plus, there's no delay of any sort. Things just take some time. My guess is that NOLO needs about 50ms to give control to the kernel/U-boot, so it's not really affecting anything.
