Hi

After trying to understand all the different ways through all these pages , I have done this :

1. Launch xterminal
2. Sudo gainroot
3. kernel-config load lv
4. kernel-config limits 250 850
5. kernel-config save ideal_850
6. kernel-config default ideal_850

7 kernel-config default default (resets kernel back to original 600)

Queen Beecon widget is far to complicated for me and extremly unclear,

So I tried this using two scripts

#1 'default_kernel.desktop' placed in /usr/share/applications/hildon

[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Version=0.1
Type=Application
Terminal=true
Name=default kernel
Exec=osso-xterm "sh /opt/scripts/reset_default"
Icon=
X-Window-Icon=
X-HildonDesk-ShowInToolbar=false
X-Osso-Type=application/x-executable

________________

and the second script
#2 named 'reset_default' placed in /opt/scripts

echo Your Nokia N900 kernel is being reset
sudo gainroot
kernel-config default default
echo Your Nokia Kernel is reset to default

I have the little blue widget named 'default kernel' on my desktop which takes me to the line 'Your Nokia N900 kernel is being reset', but then asks me for a password, so I'm stuck

any ideas ?

As a newbie in Linux, maybe I'm way of, for info when i type in 'sudo gainroot' in xterm it works just great
