Kernel-bfs has been updated to include the BFS CPU scheduler v0.363 and all the changes from kernel-power up the current latest version available (2.6.28-maemo46).
This release bumps the kernel-bfs version to -bfs5
Compiled debs can be found in the files section of the kernel-bfs garage page:

The source can be found in the GIT repository:

On a side note: some people reported less smooth transitions when using kernel-bfs. As a possible solution for those who experience that, I've compiled schedtool for the N900 to be able to make use of the additional policies BFS introduces. Click

to download it.
Make sure the following command runs when hildon-desktop has been started, e.g. with a
startup script
Code:
sleep 5 && /usr/bin/schedtool -I `pidof hildon-desktop`
This basically sets a policy for hildon-desktop which allows it to use more CPU time when the N900 is being stressed.
