Re: [Announce] kernel-power stable v49 in Extras-Testing
sorry if this have been ask before, but why are we still using 2.6.28 kernel?
what prevent N900 to use 3.2.1 (latest kernel) or even 2.6.38? |

If you want 3.2.5, go ask the Nemo team if they can roll it in. |
Re: [Announce] kernel-power stable v49 in Extras-Testing
Any luck on the WLAN bug?
Disabling WLAN from automatically connecting doesn't help. If I go into the "Internet connection" widget from the home screen, WLAN APs are still pinged. After 2-3 days of even no WLAN use, if I go into the "Internet connection" widget the kernel panics in the same way as I have reported. Could someone fashion a patch go catch the NULL pointer for now to at least not kernel panic? |

Turns out IT had changed where some of it's wifi APs were, and my office is now in the middle of two nearly-equally low powered APs. Every time a truck passes by outside it drops the signal and potentially changes which AP it's connected to, which caused a reboot on occasion. :mad: (It took me days to figure out it was trucks/signal causing this...) I "fixed" it by removing the work AP listing entirely and just not connecting to wifi at work. I just loaded up todays build and re-enabled the work AP. Will let you know if it reboots again in the near future. Lots of trucks are due to pass by in the next couple hours. :) Update: Lots of trucks and wifi up/downs later, and no reboots. Will let you know if that changes, but so far, so good. |

Maybe start up a new KP50 thread?
I think its time :) |

I'm good either way. Just wanted to clarify what the other poster is probably getting at. Btw: Pre50 has changed over from wifi to 2G, 3G, and dual on my device dozens of times in the past 12 hours. No reboots yet. (knock on wood!) :) |

Personally, after a great deal of analysis of battery-patch; I'm pretty convinced that if you load KP, and configure it properly, you will get as good or better battery savings. 99% of what the battery patch scripts do is load one of three tuned kernel profiles, based on the state of the device. I'm pretty convinced that can be boiled down to one single profile, based on your usage pattern, which will give better results with less mucking about. On the upside, battery-patch has now been fixed in that removing the package does in fact appear to revert the system to it's pre-patched state (with the exception that you must re-default your kernel-config to personal settings if you had them previously). So there's less harm in trying it out, if you don't want to bother with tuning your own profile. Speed-patch OTOH still sometimes leaves remnant changes behind, at least in the last version I analyzed. As with any constantly updating app: in the next version all bets are off, especially since the author says the next version is a major re-write of what was being done before (again). My advice: Uninstall anything with "patch" in the title and craft your own kernel profile. It will better suit what your usage pattern is, and has less issues in the long run when it comes to updates. |

Re: [Announce] kernel-power stable v49 in Extras-Testing
previously on v42, today i updated to v49 in extras-testing. everything seems to be ok except i am unable to watch flash videos on microb. it only shows a black square for example in youtube. tried in a couple of other sites but experienced the same problem. i tried playing an flv file in kmplayer and it worked. rebooted twice but the problem still persits. what could be wrong? i am using tweakflash.

Re: [Announce] kernel-power stable v49 in Extras-Testing
Quote:
Just to clarify: - how long ago did you try to view these videos before installing kp49, i.e. could the provider have changed flash version since you last visited? - did you install anything other than kp49 itself, what about settings package etc? What happens when you remove flash-tweak? If msg appears "need flash10+", try reinstalling. Any improvement? |

Hello,
just installed pali's latest build of KP49pre50- it runs stable here except one issue: when I try to load the bleeding edge wifi drivers I get the error-message: Code:
Error while loading kernel modules Thanks to all involved! CU Michael |
Re: [Announce] kernel-power stable v49 in Extras-Testing
Hi! last pre50 build has some problems. I got (at least) 2 times kernel segfault and n900 rebooted.
In syslog is nothing logged, so only mtd2 log is usefull. Here is: Code:
[92737.347869] Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address 65727453 |

From the mtd2 log I'm guessing you're using the fm transmitter? Death in kmem_cache_alloc is never good, very hard to debug, since it may not have anything to do with user-land operations going on at the time. :( I'll enable fm transmitter and see if I can cause it to duplicate, to see if it's related at all. Is there anything else you were doing at the time that caused it to reboot that you can think of? |
Re: [Announce] kernel-power stable v49 in Extras-Testing
N900 rebooted when screen was locked and I not used it for more minutes. I only heard vibra engine and then Nokia hands video.
Last syslog output is: Code:
Feb 17 17:04:47 Pali-Nokia-N900 fmtxd[5387]: GLIB WARNING ** default - No marshaller for signature of signal 'Condition' |
Re: [Announce] kernel-power stable v49 in Extras-Testing
I created patch which do not report -EPERM when some app (e.g. fmtxd) try to change power level when fm transmitter is locked:
https://garage.maemo.org/plugins/ggi...c02b15f3f813ed At least it could disable stupid fmtxd syslog messages... |
Re: [Announce] kernel-power stable v49 in Extras-Testing
Quote:
One thing I find odd though, why is fmtxd running on your system at all? On my N900, the only time that runs is when FM has been enabled and it's actively transmitting audio. By default it runs at start up but goes away on it's own after a short delay. So the fact that it was even running implies to me that something was trying to activate it? |
Re: [Announce] kernel-power stable v49 in Extras-Testing

So I tried out the modified binary from here and the problem was solved- the fmtxd is now shut down completely when it is not used. HTH and HAND Michael |
Re: [Announce] kernel-power stable v49 in Extras-Testing
@Pali, patches 0001-mtd-fix-a-huge-latency-problem-in-the-MTD-CFI-flash-.diff and 0002-mtd-change-struct-flchip_shared-spinlock-locking-int.diff are still enabled in series file, please disable them as it is confirmed those cause reboots/slowdowns.
Also I am unable to use QtMobileHotspot with USB, device reboots in 1-2 seconds after connecting USB cable. Please anyone to test if it is working for him with latest KP. I suspect it might be USB sysfs notify patch, will disable it and will test. EDIT: it is not USB sysfs notify which bugs the kernel. |

Re: [Announce] kernel-power stable v49 in Extras-Testing
I have tried the latest kp pre-50 and worked no problems for me with the exception of wifi lxps driver so I went back to freemangordons pre-50 and as usual I do a autoremove & autoclean only this time after autoclean a lot of my aps with lots of lib files where deleted resulting in a mess. I could not get any updates as repositories reported errors ex: "sub-process bzip2 returned an error code (1)" and "applet not found" so I had to reflash my device. Not sure if there is a bug by reverting back to a previous KP you can lose files (being deleted) by trying to autoclean your device, can anyone else confirm the above.

Re: [Announce] kernel-power stable v49 in Extras-Testing
Be prepared, long post of kernel-power-settings which is driving me crazy. Really kernel-power settings is gone nuts.
In this post I describe exactly what steps I took to get this result, and it's reproducable 10/10. I already thought kernel power-settings was acting weird on me so I ran: Code:
apt-get remove --purge kernel-power-settings This part describes why I am posting this... After removing kernel-power-settings, I installed kernel-power-settings again by issuing Code:
sudo gainroot I thought these voltages were quite weird, and yet it becomse even weirder, here the voodoo kicks in, when I recheck the config I just loaded with nano http://www.mediafire.com/imgbnc.php/...7bab7c656g.jpg WTF :confused:, other values in the config file than kernel-config show reports... Especially freq 500 and 600 are weird I did not set any profile as default so why don't we reboot and let it load the original "nokia" config? Easy said easy done: http://www.mediafire.com/imgbnc.php/...736d348d6g.jpg Then load the default profile and check again. Seems quite normal, except still that voltage voodoo bug ( 550 and 600) Let's make the default profile default so it loads at boot http://www.mediafire.com/imgbnc.php/...8dffdb676g.jpg Reboot... Checking again http://www.mediafire.com/imgbnc.php/...89ef13746g.jpg Voltages seems normal atleast they are linear increased with frequency increasement, not the weird jumps as when loading it. Though it still makes me wonder where the vuck do these values come from as they are definitely not in the config file(see screenshot 2, the one opened in nano) |
Re: [Announce] kernel-power stable v49 in Extras-Testing
@mr_pingu: breathe man, SR is enabled and you're seeing what SR has calculated for each frequency :p
