uboot is directly attached to a kernel. Installing uboot from repos will install the stock kernel with uboot attached. Maybe titan or anyone else could split the kernel power package into two packages: one with uboot attached and one without. So everyone could decide by himself whether to use uboot or not.

I'm currently working on this solution. The main problem is finding a proper packaging scheme compatible with HAM.

Where is the problem? Doesn't a different naming scheme suffice? Like kernel-power vs kernel-power-uboot. I guess all other related packages don't need to be changed, right? Like modules for kernel-power (kernel depends on modules not vice versa), k-p-settings (doesn't have to depend on kernel or could at least depend on one of them) or uboot related tools.

I had the issue of the battery going flat and then the device not powering on/sticking in a reboot loop and not charging.

I got around it by pressing the "u" button and then plugging the mains charger in,whlie the device was in the reboot loop. This then enabled the device to charge and I was back in with no issues.

Any one noticing a drop in fps in avi's? Mine seems a bit laggy, especially in pan and action shots? (Im on 46)

I think the tail is wagging the dog here...

Instead of pulling from the devel repo and reporting problems with new features with that version. We should instead be reporting and Voting on version 42 in testing.

>> http://wiki.maemo.org/Extras-testing/QA_Checklist

>> http://maemo.org/packages/package_in....6.28-maemo42/

That way this testing version either gets promoted or bugs get squashed and the subsequent versions in devel move up the queue...

Those wanting to report bugs with the devel versions should:

Quote:

...Be ready to file proper bug reports instead of posting complaints.
Expected problems: crashes, battery drain, poor system performance, full disk space & more...
Life as it should be. :)

For those interested in overclocking with PR1.3, version 42 in testing has worked fine for me with none of the other problems reported in this thread.

Camera works, mass storage works...

Sounds good, I was actually pleased to have uBoot included in Kernel-Power45, an easy way to get that working. One kernel including all the goodies :)
