I reinstalled kernel-power 48, but I can't boot anymore. Just a Nokia flash screen and that's it.
Only thing I noticed is that I could not read hardware info via i2cget
Code:
i2cget -y 2 0x55 0x06 w Error: Could not set address to 0x55: Device or resource busy

Trisha, please READ this reply... To everyone else, sorry, but I think this is the only way to fix this at this point.
And yes, by constantly interrupting the flow of the thread here, you do cause those working on things here to be interrupted in their work, making it harder. Minimally, it takes them longer to catch up on what's going on. Add your posts and replies people make, and it contributes a lot of time (possibly tens of minutes) that could have been spent doing real work.
"GOD" provided none of us with knowledge. Knowledge is not given, it's learned. And to learn something, you must first be willing to sacrifice your own time and to listen to those who you ask questions of. People have answered your question, but you don't like the answer, keep insisting you're right, and that they must help you. That's not learning; that's being a stubborn brat.
Why can't you read the thread from the start, and read the answers already posted long ago? Why should we have to give up our time to repeat to you something that's already been talked about hundreds of times already? Why do you keep posting here when you've been told it's not the proper thing to do, or the place to do it?
Why do you insist on installing things you don't understand the function of?

There's nothing wrong with asking questions. What's wrong is to simply land on a thread and ask "what's this for?" without reading the thread.
Doing a search (here or in google/bing/whatever) will also help a lot.
And yes, you're right, nobody is born knowing everything, but if I can give you some advice, the best is to learn for yourself (read read read, and then read some more). Then you can hopefully make an informed question which might benefit everyone.
And to answer your question: with compcache you can make a compressed swap partition IN RAM, which sounds sort of crazy, but has the effect of effectively compressing a part of your RAM, which is obviously good (you get more "real" RAM than the N900 has), at the expense of CPU overhead (compressing/decompressing obviously takes a hit).
In order to use it you need an adapted KP48 kernel as well as a kernel module + the configuration. I for myself am staying away from this (and also from KP48) until things settle and I see a benefit of all this.
I suggest you do the same, as otherwise you will make your N900 an even bigger mess than it is already (unless you really want to experiment that much, but I'd recommend to go one thing at a time, otherwise you will never know which patch/mod brings a benefit to you, and you will also never know what hit you when your N900 is in need of a complete reflash).
In short: take it easy, read, and try not to ask obvious/annoying questions.
Take care.

@trisha02,
That's your decision. The question you need to ask your self is: what do I need that is not on the stock kernel?
If it's only overclocking, then I'd just go with the latest *stable* kernel-power, and that's AFAIK version 47.
I see nothing (at the moment) in KP48 that would give me a reason to install it. The 720p and compcache are just a beginning, and the kernel doesn't make it work out-of-the-box.
Plus the other patches don't mean anything to me, and I have a certain "distrust" for patches coming from people over here (not meaning to offend, it's just like that), unless I have the chance to review these patches, which I guess I'll never have.
Take the example of the people reporting leafpad crashing. It makes no sense that a kernel would introduce this problem, and although leafpad might well be buggy, this should never be a reason for a computer to crash or reboot.
My long-term-plan would be to either compile my own kernel some day, or hope that some day we can use the upstream kernel (with as few patches as necessary), but that's just not going to happen any time soon.
