This is kind of off-topic but I just want to share how I got kernel-power-settings to install after I installed the updated multiboot:

1. I downloaded the kernel-power-settings package from here: http://repository.maemo.org/extras-d...0.11_armel.deb
Then I saved it to MyDocs.

2. Then, opened the terminal and entered the following commands.
Code:
sudo gainroot
cd /home/user/MyDocs
dpkg -i --force-depends kernel-power-settings_0.11_armel.deb
It produced some warnings/errors but when I run the kernel-config command, it runs. And I was able to get back to the 'ideal' setting.

HTH.

I did as suggested and installed kernel-power-settings.

However, I know get errors installing/updating other apps (some packages have unmet dependencies).

It suggests to run apt-get -f install to correct, which just wants to remove kernel-power-settings.

Any suggestions?

P.S. Help thread please.

I was trying to install nano via cli, got an error. Also tried using fapman to update Plastic theme pack.

After running apt-get -f install (and letting it remove kernel-power-settings) overclocking in maemo fails to work. Upon reboot, it reverts back to normal 600mHz.

Code:

Nokia-N900:/home/user/MyDocs/downloads/nitdroid# apt-get upgrade
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  kernel-power-settings: Depends: kernel-power-flasher (>= 2.6.28-maemo25) but it is not installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try using -f.

Any ideas. I'd like to play with nitdroid, but I also want to o/c maemo.
