I have finally uploaded the new experimental version 0.5 of kernel-power-settings.
It has lots of useful features and should make life easier but it's very different from the old kernel-load script. This version is not fully tested. Only install if you are prepared to reflash!

The file format of /etc/default/kernel-power has changed. Old files can still be loaded but should be converted.
The main script is /usr/sbin/kernel-config
the script can be called with "sudo /usr/sbin/kernel-config ..." or just /usr/sbin/kernel-config.
It can show, load and save settings.
User settings are stored in /home/user/.kernel/ ,
templates (do not modify!) in /usr/share/kernel-power-settings/
The configuration is saved and restored by the Backup program.
You can fine tune the voltage for a particular freq with "kernel-config lock freq voltage dsp".

In addtion to that you can configure options to enable fsck of /home during boot,
or to start USBnet+ssh early and it loads the modules in /etc/modules during boot.

more details when I find some time to elaborate (but it's mostly self-explanatory for power users).
In the meantime please use it with caution or do not upgrade.

700mhz

750mhz

800mhz

900mhz

Run X Term and become root, then type fiasco-image-update /home/user/MyDocs/zImagexxx.fiasco

Replace the xxx with correct mhz number, e.g. if your flashing the 800mhz you need to type fiasco-image-update /home/user/MyDocs/zImage800.fiasco

Remember X Term is case sensitive.

Once done please reboot.

This worked for me running PR1.1

If you want to return to the stock kernel then open X Terminal and become root, then use the following command apt-get --reinstall install kernel kernel-flasher and reboot.

Ok so I installed the kernel. then I did this step (I installed the Ideal setting):

2) to permanently install a default configuration

rm -f /etc/default/kernel-power
ln -s /usr/share/kernel-power-settings/ideal /etc/default/kernel-power



Is there anything else I need to do?

Check in Conky or write "uname -a" in terminal. If you see a name with power in it you are set. You could also install cpufreq-utils to see your settings.
