Will you give me some hint on how KPS correlate with the fact that:

# core |OFF: 0%|RET: 0%|INA: 0%| ON: 100%| now
# iva2 |OFF: 0%|RET: 0%|INA: 0%| ON: 100%| now
WTF?
Anyway the evidence is clear. Remove KP settings, problem goes away. Re-install KP settings and it may eventually sometime come back.
I mentioned it around 1 year ago, no one cared. I just stopped using KP settings and thought nothing more of it after that.

vi_ you are the man, big thanks !! you make me laugh with some of your explanations 
"Also, 2900mS sleep? HOLY ****! ultimate power saving!"
i have some questions:
- do you use kernel power?
- what brings me kernel power without kernel settings for the device performance?
- is it possible to oc the device and do the smart reflex thing without settings?
btw. thanks man!

yes kernel49 consumes battery more than power48. my phone dropped 7% battery in 8 hours. my phone was in stand by mode and also offline mode was activated. i haven't had any issue like this in kp48.

Of course, the things pali and freeman have achieved recently make it essential for me.
- what brings me kernel power without kernel settings for the device performance?
If you copy the kernel power kernel-config script. For example copy kernel-config to a file called kernel in /usr/bin or something (be extremely careful or you will braek everything!) then un-install KP-settings you will still have kernel-config (now called kernel) available. The difference is it will not load at boot time.
PROCEED WITH CAUTION!
Only do the following if you KNOW your OC settings will not crash your device or you may endup with a boot-loop!
edit /etc/pmconfig. Here you can set your max/min clock speed and SR. As for setting allowed freqs and DSP freqs you need to stick a script in either event.d or Xsession that echos the appropriate values to the appropriate places. I used xsession, however you could just hi-jack an event.d script like the non gui swappolube event.
- is it possible to oc the device and do the smart reflex thing without settings?
See above.
However I must add none of this is compatible with anything else that muddles with your kernel settings (i.e. battery patch script and speed patch script).

i extracted "kernel-config" and "dsp" from the kernel-power-settings_0.13_armel.deb
i copied kernel-config and dsp to my device, ok!
and how must look my event.d file or the xsession file ( didn't do this before ) to load "kernel-config" and "dsp" on start up?

I AM IN NO WAY RESPONSIBLE FOR ANYTHING THAT OCCURS BY YOU FOLLOWING THESE INSTRUCTIONS! AT YOUR OWN RISK.
Well if you have extracted 'kernel-config' make a copy of it somwhere then uninstall KP-settings. Then copy kernel-config to /usr/bin.
Check kernel-config still works after uninstalling KP settings.
Check Your device can handle your 'dsp' profile ( no reboots etc).
If that works then as root enter this:
Now reboot and cross your fingers. dsp profile should be loaded after boot.

While the CPU is not hammering some hardware on the n900 is. Notice the extra 100% ONs in the power domain table for with KP settings.
Also, 2900mS sleep? HOLY ****! ultimate power saving!
There is an ancient bug in KP settings. I had issues with KP settings since version 26. I never figured out why it caused all these wake ups I just know in some circumstances it does.
This is why I do not use KP settings. I have the script extracted from the deb so I can quickly load/unload settings but it does not do the whole startup thing, I do that from an Xsession script.
