There was a proposition about merging threads - i liked to keep it kernel-power way (one thread for development problems/ideas, another one for generic "TrueCrypt eats my battery life and dog" type). Yet, I've also noticed, that keeping it separated is becoming troublesome, so when time permits, I may audit and re-write last remaining suggestions (with correct credits for NIN101, of course), and perform a /thread hijack

Ok... I updated to Kernel Power v49 and now it works!
Now, stupid question :
as I said, I installed this version:
http://i1209.photobucket.com/albums/...7forMaemo5.jpg
I updated to Kernel Power v49 and then installed Truecrypt 7.1-maemo6.
I started TrueCrypt from Xterminal: am I sure I'm using Truecrypt 7.1-maemo6 and not the previous version?
How do I know? If I click on "About", it only says: TrueCrypt 7.1.

Bulletproof approach - perform:
Code:
apt-get purge truecrypt
... watch carefully, if it succeed, then, try running 'truecrypt'a from xterm as root. If it doesn't start (*doesn't exist), install it again from the repos, and You'll be 100% sure, that You're using latest version

Before someone start to grill me - I know, there are more "proper" ways of checking it. Yet, this one seems to be least complicated and error prone.

Help needed, please...I get the following error when trying to create a volume, after the formatting finishes:

/proc/misc: No entry for device-mapper found
Is device-mapper driver missing from kernel?
Failure to communicate with kernel device-mapper driver.
/proc/misc: No entry for device-mapper found
Is device-mapper driver missing from kernel?
Failure to communicate with kernel device-mapper driver.
Incompatible libdevmapper 1.02.27 (2008-06-25)(compat) and kernel driver
Command failed

I've done some reading but can't come up with a concrete step to solve the problem. It looks like I need the dm module, but don't know where/how to get it. I am not a power kernel user.

Hmmm, thanks, but having read about the issues with video playback (pre-kp52, though), I am a little wary.

(Don't mean to derail the thread to talking about kernel power here.)
