As soon as I get PR1.2 OTA access today (?) I can test whether it is possible to upgrade without deinstalling kernel-power.
...aha - thanks and good to know; FYI: your v37 feels much snappier then the v3x versions before; stay on this track

@HugoSon: yes, I noticed improved snappiness too but I had also moved back some relocated directories from /home to rootfs (using unmoveroot.sh). not sure whether it is due to the kernel.

It may be possible to upgrade to PR1.2 without deinstalling kernel-power.
Are there any volunteers from UK (i.e. with OTA access) who could test whether it works?
Warning: make a backup before PR upgrades and be prepared to reflash!
After the installation you would only need to run
Code:
apt-get install --reinstall kernel-power kernel-power-flasher
or upgrade to the latest kernel version.

Sorry, I was some time away from the overclocking thread.
On PR1.1 I had Letho's 900mhz Kernel installed.
Now on PR1.2 I've installed the enhanced linux kernel.
it is overclocked by default?

With PR 1.2 and latest Titan Kernels Smart Reflex didnt work.
With PR 1.1 worked for weeks stable till 750 mhz.
With Pr 1.2 i have reboots when screen gets off and device try to go to standby, on full power and normal use no problem.
Dont know is this is Pr 1.2 related or Kernel?

What do you think is better for battery life - scaling starting at 250, 500 or 600?

Im trying XLV 250-950 and 600-1100 ... and Im not sure yet ...

good news. deinstallation prior to upgrading to PR1.2 doesnt seem to be necessary.
http://wiki.maemo.org/Kernel_Power#U...ng_to_a_new_PR
my OTA upgrade went off without a hitch and I'm running v37 on PR1.2 now.

I decided to promote v37 to testing as there were too many problems with earlier versions.
Please test it (http://wiki.maemo.org/Help_testing_software) and then vote on
https://maemo.org/packages/package_i....6.28-maemo37/
Thanks

I have been using Lehtos kernels before so spare with me.
I tried this from jakimans guide:
sudo gainroot
kernel-config load ideal
kernel-config limits 250 750

Only thing i get is kernel-confic: not found
