guys, please read the wikis carefully
http://wiki.maemo.org/Kernel_Power
http://wiki.maemo.org/Overclocking
those questions have been answered thousand times and the answers
collected in the wikis. If you have problems, go back to the defaults.
the instructions for the older kernel in extras are different from the one in -testing.

I did read both of those pages as well as Jakiman's guide. I was under the assumption that kernel-config show would display the kernel settings in xterminal, but for me nothing happens when I run that command.

okay do as following!
hope you've installed rootsh!

go to xterminal! then enter root.
you'll be entered into root mode

now just enter kernel-config show

let me know what's the output!

hi, same problem here, and i seem to have found a temporal solution.

first, dont use 'ideal', try ULV, if it still reboots randomly, try 'LV'

second, try to set the lower frequency to 250, and the upper to 750, anything over 750 gives me reboots, its annoying i know, i guess we just have the worst of luck.

good luck

I do have rootsh installed. If I follow those steps I get kernel-config: not found.

hello,

I have a beginner question about overclocking...
what is the best kernel with the best settings at the moment?
is lowvoltage useful or not? reach every cpu 125MHz?
Until what MHz i should go?
