Same here I get this error
/home/user # kernel-config show
This kernel version 2.6.28-omap1 is not supported
Please make sure that kernel-power is installed and running.
If you have just installed the kernel, you need to shutdown and boot to activate it.
To reinstall the power user kernel run:
'apt-get install --reinstall kernel-power kernel-power-flasher'

a) Depends on OC level.
b) Near Sakkara, in the sun? No. But then again if you would leave it in the sun the battery would probably pop anyway.

Each device is different, each takes OC differently. There is no inherent "safe". Some will do OK, some will not. The more heat around, the less your chances of coming out OK in a year or two.

Use your own judgment, because it's your pocket if it goes. IMO, stay lower than others, they may have as much as 25 degrees lower ambient than you. Try to keep voltage lower, as it will give you a better shot at it.

Me, I have some small scripts that pop the speed up and down and if something hangs or cranks the CPU for a while, I immediately ctrl+shift+x and lower it to compensate for heat. If you're outside in 40+ degrees, stick to lower frequencies. The reason I don't use Queen whatshername or desktop shortcuts is that UI is sluggish exactly when you need to throttle down. So, terminal for me.

I think the titan's kernel was not loaded in you device. Try this on a terminal:
uname -r
if it tells you that you have 2.6.28-omap1 instead of v39 you'll have to reinstall the titan's kernel. Hope this help GOD bless YOU ALL!

GUIDE UPDATE
- Added Nitdroid overclocking guide section!

Let me know if I made any typos. (I did double check but still...)
Also, I will add more notes later about it when I can.

When i try to install the linux kernel for power users, i get this: clonflict with programpacks: kernel-modules-maemo and kernel-maemo.
Whats wrong? Im root.
I did read through the wiki page, but didnt find any answers.

EDIT: made it though x-term, succesfully overclocked to 850mhz.
