had a similar problem when i installed the Fcamera and bless N900 apps
uninstalled them, restarted and was back to normal....

Here the same problem. Almost 100 % sure that the problem is the kernel power, cause I update it today, and it doesnt work. Another clue that prove that the kernel is the problem is that i have 3 entries in my n900 boot screen:
1.Maemo original kernel
2.Maemo titan's kernel
3.and nitdroid

In the OC kernel, doesnt work. In Nokia kernel works perfectly...so i guess we have to wait for updates..

I had the same problem but I couldn't wait for updates because I need both, the camera and the kernel-power (for IPv6), so I installed the older version that works with both (2.6.28-maemo40).
So here is what I did:
1. uninstalled the kernel-power as described here: http://wiki.maemo.org/Kernel_Power#Deinstallation

2. downloaded on N900 the following 3 files:
http://repository.maemo.org/extras-d...mo40_armel.deb
http://repository.maemo.org/extras-d...mo40_armel.deb
http://repository.maemo.org/extras-d...mo40_armel.deb

3. Install the 3 debs:
dpkg -i kernel-power/kernel-power_2.6.28-maemo40_armel.deb
dpkg -i kernel-power-modules_2.6.28-maemo40_armel.deb
dpkg -i kernel-power-flasher_2.6.28-maemo40_armel.deb

Now you have the old kernel-power installed that works fine with the camera.

Ioan, youre the best. Thanks a lot =)

i have a problem...when i try to install the deb packages i get this error: (assuming that the deb files are in the folder "MyDocs":

dpkg: error processing kernel-power/kernel-power_2.6.28-maemo40_armel.deb (--install)
cannot access archive_ No such file or directory
Errors were encountered while processing:
kernel-power/kernel-power_2.6.28-maemo40_armel.deb

and the application manager neither install it..

help =(

if the files are in MyDocs, you should do dpkg -i /home/user/MyDocs/kernel-power_2.6.28-maemo40_armel.deb

ioan, you rock. thanks a lot!

reinstalling power40 fixed it for me too, thanks!!

same here, the problem came up after updating the power kernel...

I think there was something very wrong with the power kernel released around 10 or 11-11, I got also problems with camera (all cam applications) and got screen-glitches in menus ... (sometimes so bad I could not see the menu)
Today I had a new update for power kernel and this fixed everything (you just need to be aware that also U-boot is implemented now in the power-kernel so you will see a U-boot when restarting your N900 after the update)
