@maacruz - lol. But TBH it really does something, as soon after I tried it, I was unable to pick up a phone call because phone-ui was unresponsive for the first time since PR 1.0. AIUI it removes all cgroup assignments made by Nokia, thus giving fair chance to everyone to lock the UI

. I am not much in cgroups so I may be wrong.

While really offtopic here, I think you should re-post your findings on "magical patch" thread. I don't think we should tolerate stupidity and ignorance here (on TMO).

I have been away for a while am well horny about the inclusion of compcache&hd recording. Is there a wiki entry that details the instructions required to get all this cool **** up to date?

OR

Should I just wait for KP49 to hit the repos and take it form there?

KP hopefully should be in devel in a matter of days, Harmattan DSP diver and compcache included. For HD you still have to follow the instructions on "720p" thread. Unfortunately seems from today Nokia has withdrawn firmware image that was used from their server, so the script should be updated for the new firmware.

LOL, YOU ARE ACTUALLY RIGHT!!

I hadn't realized it, but actually nokia has setup cgroups in the N900, just it doesn't show in the usual places (/dev/cgroups or /etc/mtab)
But...

Code:

# cat /proc/mounts|grep cpu
cgroup /syspart cgroup rw,freezer,memory,cpu 0 0

It actually does something!!!
Well, OK, not what you wanted though, it completely screws the careful setup done by nokia, which actually has Desktop and Application cgroup categories

Oh my!

echo > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/ondemand/avoid_frequencies

perhaps you can check the postinst script before
then the *funny* things will make sense then

and .profile launches .bashrc which will make hildon-desktop get cgrouped

The latest kernel (freemangordon's build) seems to be more stable. I've been running it for 5 days now with only one reboot. Prior to this the KP kernel only lasted 24 to 48 hours before it would reboot.

I'm using the default settings file, so 250 to 805mhz with SR on.

Thanks.

Lol, that's improvement

Just for recording sake - reboots out of blue sky aren't sign of anything good. You should not experience this. I haven't had random reboot since ancient times, when dinosaurs were hunting Australopithecus using speedpatches. So, basically, not in last half of a year. You should check what is causing this.

// Edit

I'm getting strange problem with latest kp49, or I've missed something. I can't seem to blacklist bq27x00_batter.ko - no matter what I try. Of course, in my /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist (and in /etc/modprobe.d/kernel-power.blacklist) I got:

Code:

blacklist bq27x00_battery

I'm sure it doesn't contain any typos. "bq27x00_battery" is my second blacklisted module on the list, first one is "mousedev". I haven't had such problems in kp48.

Currently, I workaround'ed this by putting:

Code:

modprobe -r bq27x00_battery

...into my startup script in
/etc/event.d/
, but it is suboptimal solution.

Any hints?

Thanks.

Default profile has limits 250-600. And you should really check what is the reason for reboot, it could be a problem with KP or with something else on your system.

renice 1 `cat /syspart/applications/standby/background/tasks`
renice 1 `pgrep modest`
/usr/sbin/kernel-config limits 125 500

that script set freq. limit from 125 to 500, renice background tasks and modest only when there is no active voice/video call.
