when using titans kernel as default, if the device is rebooted more than once in a 5 minute period the stock kernel is loaded, this is to stop reboot loops

Probably a dumb question but why is 1150 the limit? Also has anyone blown up there n900 yet? that will be when things start to get interesting

wellllllll, i think that 1.2GHz can fry the chip, not sure, but i think it might be true, the A8s are made to withstand 1Ghz speeds (the good samples).
for me, i will just go directly to 2Ghz and run windows 7 on it, heck why not, with enough human souls from this forums, i will go to 5GHz, yeah!
on the other hand, if you want to allow both 125MHz and 250Mhz, type this xterm:
echo > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/ondemand/avoid_frequencies
if you want to avoid 125MHz, type this:
echo 125000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/ondemand/avoid_frequencies

i run the ideal config and ramp it up to 1150mhz when i need an extra boost for psx4all but i mostly use a max of 850mhz-1ghz for day to day use.

it's funny how we all have the same phone but some people are running fine at 1150 and some people are having problems over 900.

The theory is, it can boost your battery life, now Nokia's default kernel is 250-600MHz using 1.075-1.350V, if you used the ideal profile, it will be 500-850MHz using 0.975-1.200V, so actually, since you are using lower voltages, it will help boost your battery, not to mention since your device will be more responsive, it will do most of its processes faster so it will take less time doing them thus saving energy.
Ofc, you can go commandos with the battery saving, set the profile to XLV and enable 125Mhz (which uses 0.850), more on that stuff here:
