Re: Why there is lack of interest "Highspeed enabled kernel for the Nokia n800 and n8
 

Don't expect breakthroughs :-) This is just project for centralizing efforts for anyone who wants to join. There won't be anything new which is not already scattered across the net and available now.

BTW there won't be just one kernel.
I expect several ones with different choices made by project members and with various levels of stability. Of course there could be one with everything in too.

One idea thing I'd particularly like to see happen is the stabler kernels being pushed to Diablo Extras-devel. Flashing a new kernel from Application manager is simple stuff with faisco-flasher now, and it'd be very cool not to have to do to much work to get the community kernels.

Hmm, great idea, that would mean releasing kernel patches as properly done debian sources with nice name, dependencies, version, ... Not so funny but obviously quite useful. I already planned for each released kernel binary to have accompanying full diff against Nokia original so anyone interested could see what's in and what's different and build it themselves. Also building kernels by autobuilder is good too.

Unless I'm mistaken cmpxchg (compare-and-exchange) isn't implemented in the ARM version of the kernel source. (It's one of those tricky ones because it's meant to be atomic I believe.)

The patcher in question said that arm had pre and post arm6 versions, I'll probably go hunting and backport those as well since he was referring to 2.6.22 or 23 at that point.

So qwerty12 if install your deb for rotation and high speed is that all i have to do? Or is there something else I have to do to get high speed? I have already set up screen rotation.

Re: Why there is lack of interest "Highspeed enabled kernel for the Nokia n800 and n8
 

After installing diablo I've found that in comparing to oryginal n810 OS2008 kernel it's much faster.
On OS2008 crating 128MB of swap was painfully slow.
After diablo - I was looking for some high-speed kernel (keeping in mind huge boost on n770 after kernel upgrade) but creating 128MB of swap was way faster - so I stopped looking for faster kernel. Is it already included?

Re: Why there is lack of interest "Highspeed enabled kernel for the Nokia n800 and n8
 

Hmm I get unable to install when I try to install the .deb for high speed kernel and rotation. Any idea what's wrong?

Try Red Pill yet? Can't remember if I needed it...

Re: Why there is lack of interest "Highspeed enabled kernel for the Nokia n800 and n8
 

Ok I tried red pill and it installed. But is there anything else I need to do? After a reboot and using advanced statusbar applet (with rotation support) it doesn't show any rotation options.
