Look at the bottom of this wiki:

http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...&postcount=774

It will show you how to copy the power.conf.example and edit it to be the power.conf that you need. The file should already be on your device.


Overclocking Nitdroid Guide:

FYI
- power.conf is the same conf file syntax as the titan's kernel on the Maemo5 OS for overclocking.
- So all the same rules apply.

Assumptions:
- You have Nitdroid 0.6 or higher installed with multiboot 0.2.5 or higher with default 2 partition setup on MicroSD card.
- Nitdroid install guide: http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=58890
- Assume you have leafpad app installed.

1. Boot into Maemo5 OS.
2. Type following in xterminal to mount MicroSD's android partition into /and folder.
Code:


sudo gainroot
mount /dev/mmcblk1p2 /and

3. Now copy the example power.conf file into /and/system/etc via following command:
Code:

cp /etc/power.conf.example /and/system/etc/power.conf

If you do not have multiboot 0.2.5 or higher installed, you can download the power.conf file into /and/system/etc/ via following command:
Code:

cd /and/system/etc
wget http://downloads.nitdroid.com/power.conf LINK WILL NOT WORK, INSTALL MULTIBOOT TO GET POWER.CONF.EXAMPLE

4. Edit the power.conf file to modify overclocking config
Code:

leafpad /and/system/etc/power.conf

Edit these lines to what you want:
scaling_max_freq 9000000
scaling_min_freq 250000
avoid_frequencies 850000 805000 700000 550000 125000

FYI - These are all the available frequencies that you can specify:
1150000 1100000 1000000 950000 900000 850000 805000 750000 700000 600000 550000 500000 250000 125000

Example1 - To make it scale between 250Mhz and 1Ghz and use only the following frequencies during scaling: 1000,850,700,550,250

scaling_max_freq 1000000
scaling_min_freq 250000
avoid_frequencies 950000 900000 805000 750000 600000 500000 125000

Example2 - To make it scale between 250Mhz and 850Mhz and use only the following frequencies during scaling: 850,750,600,500,250

scaling_max_freq 850000
scaling_min_freq 250000
avoid_frequencies 850000 805000 700000 600000 550000 125000

5. Save the file and close leafpad.
6. Now open init.nokia.rc and remove the entire "# Power Management" section:
Code:

leafpad /and/init.nokia.rc

7. Save file and close leafpad.
8. Dismount android partition.
Code:

umount /dev/mmcblk1p2

9. Now reboot and enjoy a faster Nitdroid experience.
(You can get an application called SetCPU if you want to see the active cpu frequencies to confirm it's working)
