Sad to hear this - the console messages are the ultimate "boot video"! But thanks for the explanation.

I'm not interested in the log, it would be awesome to actually see the OS booting. As spanner said it would be a coolness enhancement.
But thanks anyway titan!

it would be more effective to find a replacement for hildon-startup-progress (closed-source)

Not sure if I should ask this here....but is there anyway of tying the overclock to the camera for video, and when the camera closes it goes back to stock?
So I guess my question in general is...... Is there a way to have different apps enable the overclocked kernel from the stock kernel while in use, and when the app is closed to go back to the stock kernel?

Should be possible by camping dbus triggers and adjusting. I'm sure dbus-scripts can do this, if nobody wants to make a watchdog daemon.

I used "kernel-config setdefault ideal", no now im using ideal config.

Lets say i wanna play Zen Bound for a while, and i want to use the default kernel (250-600) with original voltages,no OC, modifications...etc.

What command should i use? i tried "kernel-config setdefault default", but limits are still 500-850, i used "kernel-config limits 250-600" but the minimum freq is still 500.

as root use

Code:
 kernel-config load default
then it will be default until you reboot and your custom default config is reactivated.

if you finish playing game just

Code:
kernel-config load ideal
to get ideal back without reboot but as you used "kernel-config setdefault default" you must l use the load ideal command and then kernel-config setdefault default again to set ideal as default before reboot.

use the load command:

kernel-config load default

the setdefault command just changes the default settings on boot up, not from that point on.

********Got beaten to it!
