Update for Enhanced kernel for power users just released

I just updated Enhanced Linux kernel for power users to 2.6.28maemo42 from 2.6.28maemo40. And i can confirm it works great on PR1.3. Over clocking is back and it too is seamless.

Re: Update for Enhanced kernel for power users just released

Ooh, does this have all the PR1.3 patches? Also, any idea if fcam or hostmode is included or will work with this kernel?

Re: Update for Enhanced kernel for power users just released

just upgraded and was greeted with a kernel panic (went from v40 to v42). must be something to do with multiboot as stock kernel loads up fine?

i guess i'll follow this:

*EDIT* Nevermind. Downloaded the new v42 deb, extracted the fiasco image, extracted the kernel, copied to N900, setup a new multiboot item. Reboot, looks like I'm up and running on v42 kernel.

First I need to find their latest patches and make sure they don't interfere with normal operation.

Thats a negative on the Fcam. It doesnt work. I just get a gray screen and it just said "Saving" on exit.

If i remember it right.. you just need to go in and edit your old one... I think the item is hardcoded to the maemo40 and when you run maemo42 it will not find it.

Edit: Ohh.. and shouldn't this be in the official OC-thread? Maybe some moderator could merge them?

After you have the kenel installed, just install QCPUfreq and cpufreqUI. Use it to overclock. It goes up to 1.15Ghz

I've been running mine at the Max 1.15Ghz as i always do... Ive never had any problems or unexpected reboots. Now since the update my phone crashed and restarted when i opened the camera cover and the keyboard has little red lines on and my inputted text on this website disappeared causing me to type this whole post again. Let me know how yours go.

same.

yes, fcamera is installed here... guessing they're conflicting again? i doubt it though, because titan is aware of the fcam-drivers package issue.

Re: Update for Enhanced kernel for power users just released

I just updated the enhanced kernel as suggested in the auto update notification. Everything seems ok after that, but I find every app using the camera doesn't work. I reverted the kernel using deinstall kernel app and everything back to normal (the camera works again). Does anyone have the same experience? I'm on PR1.3 already. The prev installed enhanced power kernel worked fine before the update.

Hmm think I stay with the MohammedAG Hostmode modified v40 untill Fcam and Hostmode are fully supported from Mr Titan himself.
Looking forward for that thou.

Re: Update for Enhanced kernel for power users just released

I Have of course same issue with camera after update.
Tried removing the BlessN900 app. and the fcam drivers like titan suggested (and rebooted). But now the default camera app. just blurs a few pixels around the program launch button and then freeze the entire device.
Thinking about going back to stock Pr1.3 now because it feels like its better to wait a while until things have matured a little.
Now just hope the uninstaller for power kernel works as it should (before pr1.3 it failed on me).

Edit: I'm curious if there's a way to let aptitude point out a specific version when installing. I wouldn't be surprised if that works somehow, just gotta know the right switches I guess.

Edit2: Never mind! After second reboot it seems like the default camera application works again. I understand nothing what's going on, but I'm happy anyway! Now all I have to wait for is the fcam driver to be upgraded and the usb host mode (beta) to become integrated with titans mighty kernel.

I was about to try reinstalling it from here, but Titan just posted recompiled FCAM drivers, see http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php...926#post868926

The last seems to be the best option, but I haven't managed to install them yet.
Edit: that indeed solved the problem, you need to install using dpkg -i (see the same thread)

Re: Update for Enhanced kernel for power users just released

The FM radio app: Just checking, is anyone else have intermittent crashes with this using the power kernel? I mean, not only the application but full device crashes (reboots). It usually seems to happen during tuning between stations, even if clocking has moved back to default.

Got a missing kernel files or something even though I copied the file on /boot to /boot/multiboot. Any ideas?

Re: Update for Enhanced kernel for power users just released

@maartenmk My Fcam still does not work.

Edit:Works now after this.

Code:

sudo gainroot

cd /home/user/MyDocs/(What ever folder you saved the drivers in on 32Gb)/

dpkg -i fcam-drivers_1.0.7-1_armel.deb

Re: Update for Enhanced kernel for power users just released

Well, I'm on "power37" kernel version.

I would want to upgrade to the latest version 41 but I'm affraid to do that because the cam problems. I'm using blessn900.

I do want to wait to another upgrade without these problems???

Thanks in advance.

i didnt have multiboor or anything installed, uboot only worked with the stock kernel, but this time titan has added uboot into his new kernel POWER 44..

so it is possible to use uboot with a modified kernel:D

so guys lets start installing meego.. yaay !

Re: Update for Enhanced kernel for power users just released

This is INDEED good news! All the tasty goodies in one single candy bag.
I got the tux at boot so now I know I got uboot. Right, so I'll just have to try out the meego codedrop release in some of the threads here, (wherever that was).
If I understand the 43 release right (which now is 44) it seems like I also have the usbhost support. Guess all I need is the frontend application for that now, right?
Thanks Titan!

Psycho: See the changelog at the garage page.
debernardis: Did you just install the frontend application to get the usb host working with this kernel or do I need to do anything else? (Haven't started yet, just curious).
