Re: Pants on Fire
 

no problem

Re: Pants on Fire
 

You're probably shortening the life of your N900 significantly by overclocking it like that, but i guess you already know that

Re: Pants on Fire
 

Only true if you overclock above 1000Mhz. The Cortex A8 was made to run from 600Mhz, minimum, to 1000Mhz, safe maximum.

Re: Pants on Fire
 

There were variants made that were officially spec'd to scale to 1ghz, those included in the N900 are the 550-600mhz variant. Yes most of the A8s in N900 will scale up to 1ghz but not all will.

Re: Pants on Fire
 

I don't wanna say you're wrong, but where'd you read that?

I just checked ARM's site, as far as it's concerned, the Cortex A8 is a variant in the Cortex-A series, four variants are available - A5, A8, A9, A15. There's only one Cortex-A8 available on their site, and it says

It's clock speed is set by the manufacturer - Nokia chose 600Mhz - probably to try to stretch out the battery.

Re: Pants on Fire
 

you know the whole reason i decided to customize the conky source was so people wouldn't need to do that anymore... just type ${battery_temp} and save your cpu cycles. you guys are going to get that version eventually so you might as well get used to it :)
