Thanks again mornage
I followed your tip but unfortunately i wasn't able to autoload the module.
I have tried 3 different ways:
1 - i changed /etc/multiboot.d/Maemo-2.6.28.10power37.item as in your last post with no changes in /etc/modules and with no /etc/modules.boot file.
The system booted but the module wasn't loaded.
2 - Then i create a /etc/modules.boot file with:
After rebooting and choosing power37 the system just fails the boot process and i have to reboot omap1.Code:# # modules.boot # # List of modules the bootloader (multiboot) shall load. # bq27x00_battery
3 - Then i deleted /etc/modules.boot and changed /etc/modules with:
The system booted power37 normally but the module bq27x00_battery wasn't autoloaded.Code:# /etc/modules: kernel modules to load at boot time. # # This file contains the names of kernel modules that should be loaded # at boot time, one per line. Lines beginning with "#" are ignored. # Parameters can be specified after the module name. bq27x00_battery
I'm don't know how to use modules.boot.examples and i couldn't find any help about it. I wonder if the file name should have item id like modules.Maemo-2.6.28.10power37.item
Perhaps the developer Jay-C may help on this.
If I read correctly, this module allows you to check battery temp? How do you actually check it and I have a play around and see if I can work anything out.
E: nope, that didn't work. Will contact jay-c and see what he says.

Think I may have borked things a bit. I was playing with different item configs and now I have a solid white light when booting with the Nokia splash until the unit powers down abruptly. The multimenu does not appear when the keyboard is exposed. Any suggestions before I get home and perform a reflash? It also just hits a bootloop if I just plug it into a charger no flashy yellow to indicate charging.

Ok, I'm now booted into power-kernel V39!! Here is what I did.
Boot maemo using power kernel.
Update power kernel to V39 via appman.
download this file to MyDocs
open xterm
This should extract all files from the deb file into the newly created Kernel folder. Now we move and rename the kernel into multiboot.Code:sudo gainroot cd MyDocs mkdir Kernel dpkg-deb -x kernel-power_2.6.28-maemo39_armel.deb /home/user/MyDocs/Kernel
You should now have the correct kernel in the correct place, with the correct name. All that is left now is to adjust the item file.Code:cd Kernel/boot mv zImage-2.6.28-maemo39.fiasco /boot/multiboot/vmlinuz-2.6.28.10power39
Change the following linesCode:cd /etc/multiboot.d nano Maemo-2.6.28.10power37.item
Reboot and you should now see the new kernel where the old one was.Code:ITEM_NAME="Maemo 2.6.28.10power37" to ITEM_NAME="Maemo 2.6.28.10power39" ITEM_KERNEL=2.6.21.10power37 to ITEM_KERNEL=2.6.21.10power39
Please bear in mind that I am in work and get regularly interrupted by people calling. Although I have tried my best to ensure everything is spelled correctly, there may be a few typos so I recommend using tab to complete paths and file names.
Edit, to quote titan:
So you really do not need to do this. The guide is only really for people that already have. (i.e 1st steps have been done and you have had to boot back into default maemo)
I installed kernel-power-bootimg and kernel-power-modules,
renamed the zImage and modified the .item file.
Booted fine with the first attempt.
If you have problems, it's highly likely there is a typo somewhere.
Cheers
Jay-C

We had this problem with Nitdroid, but it is solved now with a more advanced bq27x00 module.
However, it is safe to load the module once the system is up and running (!?!)

so you installed -kernel-power_2.6.28-maemo39_armel.deb and
-kernel-power-modules_2.6.28-maemo39_armel.deb
but not the -kernel-power-flasher_2.6.28-maemo39_armel.deb right ? probablly because i installed the flasher ? and cause the problem.
-kernel-power-modules_2.6.28-maemo39_armel.deb
but not the -kernel-power-flasher_2.6.28-maemo39_armel.deb right ? probablly because i installed the flasher ? and cause the problem.
