powertop for N810
 
I compile powertop on N810
http://www.lesswatts.org/projects/powertop/
But N810 kernel compiled without CONFIG_TIMER_STATS.
Do anybody have kernel with CONFIG_TIMER_STATS?
Where can I get N810 kernel patches?

svs, nice work. Mind sharing your binaries here?

You can recompile a new kernel in scratchbox.

Run apt-get source kernel-source-rx-34

Actually, I plan on modding and releasing uberkernel. Be a long time before I get round to that though.

http://repository.maemo.org/pool/chi...-source-rx-34/

From there. Sbox should get it by default as that repo is standard. But you can download it yourself and apply the diff that is in that folder with zcat.

I can't download 55,8MB kernel source now.

I compiled it once a while ago, but I it wouldn't load the modules that went with the default Nokia kernel. You'll probably need to recompile those as well, I guess...

Re: powertop for N810
 
Nokia kernel was compiled with unset CONFIG_TIMER_STATS.
Without CONFIG_TIMER_STATS powertop is unusable.
I'll try to recompile kernel later.

Re: powertop for N810
 
Can someone please compile this in one of the kernels like the one with rotation support?

Believe me, it's not worth it.

I've tried so much times to compile a kernel with CONFIG_TIMER_STATS. I could only get it to boot up with a stock kernel with just that enabled and then when the wifi was enabled, the tablet would lock up.

Re: powertop for N810
 
Hmmm OK well, that is strange because I know a nokia kernel developer is using PowerTOP. I'll ask him if he can give me his kernel, but I don't know what dependancies it has and such...

I'm finally setting up a Scratchbox btw...

Message from power top:

I dont't know where is correct wi-fi sources

they're in scratchbox:
apt-cache search cx3110x

Re: powertop for N810
 
Is there any advancement in this project?

There is now also LatencyTOP.

LessWatts might not be very useful, but it reminded be about relatime which isn't supported yet in the Linux kernel used by the tablet. So I disabled atime for my SD card (forgot to do disable this...)
