After 1.3 upgrade - does this not allow you to overclock anymore?

Can't see any update for this either

Overclocking with PR1.3 is definitely possible. (I know cos I'm doing it...)

I had QCPUFreq installed and it had the slide bar which allowed you to overclock it - when I go into it now the slide bar is still there but yuo can only overclock it to 600mhz max

Found this on the net - would you guys agree this is the correct way to go about it:

ok here goes if you already have your phone overclocked on pr1.2 and updated your device to pr1.3 but you now find you cant overclock your phone follow these steps

1. goto apps manager on your nokia n900

2. select uninstall

3. unistall all kernel enhanced power user apps and settings and also the kernel flasher

4. unistall qcpufreq

ok now reboot your phone simply by turning it off and on again

5. go back to apps manager and download all kernel enhanced power user and settinga app as well as the kernel flasher

6. install the qcpufreq

once they have all been loaded you need to reboot your phone again by turning it off and on

when it is turned back on you need to select qcpu from your phone and it will show you that the phone is sitting at 600mhz look at the top of the screen where it says qcpu and select it.

it should say enable overclocking. help and about. select enable overclocking. it will give you a warning about overclocking which is standard.

now you can set your nokia n900 to 1ghz

hope this helps

once you installed pr1.3 update, the kernel got replaced , what you needed to do was to get power-kernel back ..

you just need to type one line in x-terminal as root for this ..

apt-get install --reinstall kernel-power kernel-power-modules kernel-power-flasher

this is also posted here :

So I dont need to do anything else? Even though I am already upgraded to 1.3?

I just put that in xterminal?

Seems so easy it;s criminal

I typed this exactly into xterminal and it states:

Could not open lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (13 permission denied )

UNABLE TO LOCK THE ADMINISTRATION DIRECTORY (/VAR/LIB/DBKG/ ) ARE YOU ROOT?

My wild guess is that you're not root.

Read the wiki page before going any further...

Note - added sudo gainroot and I get:

temporary failure resolving 'repository.maemo.org'

Lots of error messages follow ends with:

E: Unable to fetch some archives, maybe run apt-get update or try with --fix missing?

Any advice / help guys

Most appreciated in advance
