First of all, you guys rock in developing the OC system for the N900 so fast.

Will there be an app with a GUI to do all of this x-terminal stuff coming any time soon?

I've renamed all packages to kernel-power* and made kernel-maemo-flasher
a transition package. I've never done this before in Maemo so I don't know whether
it will work in HAM. It worked for me with
Code:
apt-get install kernel-flasher-maemo
apt-get remove kernel-flasher-maemo
alternatively,
Code:
apt-get install kernel-power-flasher
apt-get remove kernel-flasher-maemo
the new package kernel-power-settings contains the upstart script and
kernel configurations. it is experimental and may totally brick your device!
it will automatically move your old kernel or kernel-maemo upstart scripts to /root

Ideally, you would install it and then

to try a configuration (you can replace "ideal" with default, lv, ulv, xlv
or specify a file you created based on the template /usr/share/kernel-power-settings/default )
Code:
sudo /usr/sbin/kernel-load /usr/share/kernel-power-settings/ideal
to permanently install a default configuration
Code:
sudo ln -sf /usr/share/kernel-power-settings/ideal /etc/default/kernel-power
or your own config
Code:
sudo cp <filename> /etc/default/kernel-power
and to immediately apply it
Code:
sudo /usr/sbin/kernel-load
Have fun! (and remember not to try >600MHz unless you want to fry your device)
When installing this.. i did not get any scripts with it. Can't find kernel-power-setting or anything els either by that matter. I also tried to uninstall and reinstall again but same. Is there anything i am missing here?

I had to do apt-get update first.

My mom must have dropped me when i was small.. the obvious reason was that i forgot to install kernel-power-settings. I thought it came with the kernel-power-flasher package.

for some reason when i try to flash the kernel nowadays through flasher 3.5 it just blinks once and does nothing

I flashed once to 800 and now want to try 900 but it just blinks and goes back to saying c:\Program Files\maemo\flasher-3.5

please help me get this working again...

Ya I reinstalled but it complained the same thing, however restarting the device solved it

One question though, is there anyway I can check what speed DSP I'm running? and setting the CPU freq to 850MHz sets DSP to 500MHz right? thanks.
