using lehto's for 2days, and everything is perfect so far.

loading of images in web browsing are 20% faster is what i mainly notice in OC @125/900mhz frequencies.

the gba emu is 1% faster specially in rendering audio.

while an app is running and idle or when charging, noticed that the freqs are dynamically changing @125 and 900 only (no 250, 500, 550).

One question though, is there anyway I can check what speed DSP I'm running? and setting the CPU freq to 850MHz sets DSP to 500MHz right? thanks.
All the info lays in the /usr/share/kernel-power-settings/ and depending on you run lv/ulv/xlv/ideal

In my case i did a "cp /usr/share/kernel-power-settings/xlv /usr/share/kernel-power-settings/my-xlv" and tweaking the my-xlv file. You can also twak the DSP here if you like.

wow things are moving so fast. ive been using lehto's 128-800 and its been ok. i want to try titan's kernels but they dont seem to be as noob friendly and i dont want to brick my phone. hopefully it will advance to the point where there will actually be a gui to mess with the setting instead of a bunch of scripts and commands.

It's pretty straight forward actually..

1. install from app-manager: kernel-power-flasher and kernel-power-settings. (For safety reset kernel to stock and backup all your data)
2. edit /usr/share/kernel-power-settings/ (and the preferred voltage) vl/ulv/xlv/ideal
3. run a test with: kernel-load /etc/share/kernel-power-settings/ (preferred setting)

after a reboot you will be back on default and need to run the kernel-load command again. You can make it permanent later when you are sure it works stable for you.

The "kernel-load /etc/share/kernel-power-settings/xlv" looks like this. Edit only the "min_freq" or "max_freq" if you just want to set the mhz. Vdd1_opps_vsel is for voltage tweaking.

Code:
#UP_THRESHOLD=75
#SAMPLING_RATE=150000
VDD1_OPPS_VSEL="20 20 30 33 38 38 45 45 48 48 54 54 60 67 72"
DSP_OPPS_RATE="90000000 90000000 180000000 360000000 400000000 430000000 430000000 430000000 430000000 500000000 500000000 500000000 500000000 520000000 520000000"
MIN_FREQ=250000
MAX_FREQ=850000
SMARTREFLEX_VDD1=0
SMARTREFLEX_VDD2=0

What about ignore_nice_load? Should it be included in the kernel-power-settings scripts also? Personally I don't think it's worth enabling but still.

thanks for the reply but I don't know what to tweak and btw whats the default values set when first installed?
I have installed and done sudo kernel-load /usr/share/kernel-power-settings/ulv and set the max cpu freq echoing 850000 to scaling_max_freq as its how I was doing before. Now as the frequencies for dsp are also various, do I have to set it like cpu or it happens automatically when setting cpu and tweaking is only required if I want something different from what is there? I mean somewhere I read titan saying >=850 cpu will be 500 dsp and 520 for 1.1 and 1.2 cpus, so tweaking is only required if I want to change this?
thanks

after i installed kernel-flasher-maemo 2.8.26-maemo24, the default media player doesn't work.

each video plays first two seconds and stop by showing message "Media format not supported"

can somebody help? thanks.

this package version doesn't exist. you mean kernel-power-flasher?
did you reboot after installation?
did you overclock or change some other settings?

Either busybox is really broken or I'm more stupid than I thought.

After installing the transition-package I symlinked the file - and later found out, that there was no file to be symlinked at all... I forgot to install the additional package. But busybox didn't gave an errormessage after the first attempt to symlink - that's really... "bad".

So - if someone has no errormessage, doublecheck if the symlink (the "ln -sf"-thing) was created correct...

yes. try
Code:
cat /sys/power/dsp_opps_rate
the next version of the settings package will have a command to summarize the current settings.
