Have been searching the forum intensely the last few days,haven't found it.
How do i overclock the dsp on the n900? I need to watch some h264 movie and it's a bit laggy.

sudo gainroot
cp /usr/share/kernel-power-settings/dsp /home/user/coslp01.txt
leafpad /home/user/coslp01.txt
you see somthing like this:
# DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE - CREATE A COPY OF IT FOR CUSTOMIZATION
# minimum frequency to use
MINFREQ=500
# maximum frequency to use
MAXFREQ=900
# list of frequency configurations: each "frequency:volt,dsprate"
FREQS="0:30,90 125:30,90 250:38,180 500:48,360 550:54,400 600:60,430 720:60,520 805:60,600 850:60,600 900:60,600 950:60,600 1000:60,600 1100:72,600 1150:72,600"
SMARTREFLEX_VDD1=1
SMARTREFLEX_VDD2=1
GOVERNOR=ondemand
UP_THRESHOLD=95
SAMPLING_RATE=300000
IGNORE_NICE_LOAD=0
POWERSAVE_BIAS=0
copy above settings in your coslp01.txt and then save from menu on leafpad
open again x-terminal:
sudo gainroot
cp coslp01.txt /etc/default/kernel-power
exit
/usr/sbin/kernel-config load
restart n900
done

see the FREQ lines?

exemple: 850:60,600

850= CPU freq
60= CPU voltage lvl
600 = dsp freq

But dsp freq @ 600 seems to be the max. you may be able to go further, but it is at your own risks!

why not just simply load dsp profile ?

root
kernel-config load dsp

simple. whenever you will restart you N900 default profile will be loaded and you have to load dsp profile again.

Is this equivalent to setting both limits to 805?

yes. this will lock cpu at 805 mhz. but be careful. if you lock it for too long this might damage your N900 as N900's own maximum is 600.
