Hi Pali or anyone who can answer this! I'm now following your instructions to compile kernel-power (cd kernel-power-2.6.28; dpkg-buildpackage -b -rfakeroot) Since I'm not familiar with dpkg stuff, I thought I might just ask you: If I want to change the .config (which only gets applied after/during dpkg-buildpackage), can I just run "make menuconfig" after having run dpkg-buildpackage and then run it again after having edited the .config? (I'm home alone this weekend, so I'm going to try it anyway, but a quick confirmation would be nice). My plan is to remove some stuff and add some other stuff. Will let you know if I get anywhere.. Edit: I managed to add a patch file to the right place so that the whole debian-circus worked OK. Unfortunately I made a beginner mistake with my N900 (replaced getbootstate with a shell script just returning "USER". Forgot to chmod +x it. G*d*mnmot*erf*cki*gsh*t! My spare N900 is essentially unflashable. Linux doesn't consider it a valid device and the syslog spits a thousand errors (-110 and so) about the connected device. In-kernel charging works, sorta, but I cannot use the dedicated mode (with the wall charger, obviously), so it charges about 50mAh per hour, at most). I guess it's time to take the second spare..
