Most, likely, this is caused by bq27x00_battery.ko module loaded during boot - it loads first, then open path for bme. Ho ever, after stopping bme, starting it again result in reboot (to protect device from possible harm, by 2 thing accessing same i2c bus simultaneously. In KP's up to 47, there was a "path" that allowed them to co-exist together, but it was considered possibly harmful for the device. Real risk is disputable, and it depends how things are "protected" - in best case, during such risky situation bq27x00_battery just got "confused", in worst case, it may result in random, dangerous things related to hardware. So, with no doubts, disabling this "path" is improvement (trust me, I was very skeptic about removing it, and dig deep to get info why it's necessary).
First of all, you should check '/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist' - it should contain:
If this is present, You should check '/etc/modules'. It's possible, that it contains bq27x00_battery entry there - mysteriously, it happened to me, while upgrading to kp49. Modules from this list, are loaded during boot regardless of blacklist entry (thanks to Pali for that info), so you should *remove* it from here.Code:blacklist bq27x00_battery
After that, reboot, and Your issue should be fixed.

So, not sure if this is the right place to post this, but still. Been running kernel-power (downloaded via appdownloader) for like 2 months, no problems whatsoever. This afternoon, I discovered massive performance issues on my N900. Blacked out, reacting very slow. After a few reboots, found out it had to do with my online status on Skype. As this is one of the main functions of this phone I intend to keep using it
So, tried it all. Deleted last installed apps, everything. Nothing helped. Also tried de-installing kernel-power. Didn't work (used the menu shortcut). Then reflashed after 3 hours of trying things out (this phone is my only one), everything seemed to work fine, could login to Skype without problems. Then installed kernel-power (again via appdownloader) and the problem of hanging, slow reactions and such was there again! This time, I could remove kernel-power through the menu, and it looks like my N900 runs like before again. No troubles.
As you might have noticed, I'm far from an expert. Tried to look for general logfiles, but I cannot find them. I just don't have the knowledge. Just wanted to let you guys know what I experienced, it might not be related at all, but I don't have a clue.
Please let me know if I can be of any more help, and excuse me if this post doesn't belong here...

Do not add bq27x00_battery to /etc/modules !!! bq27x00_battery cannot live together with BME !!
