For the old behaviour you needed to press the power button first (to make the Lock Screen appear) and than you could change the volume setting.
The volume keys were looked as long as the phone screen was locked and off.
This was simply great...

I don't even want to have to press the power button to adjust volume. The chances of the volume buttons being accidently pressed in my pocket are remote. If for example I am listening to mucis on the tube I just want to adjust the volume by pressing the volume keys without pressing power button and most definitely without having to bring out the phone from my pocket and unlock it.

I agree the volume should be adjustable without unlocking/pushing the power button. This is the behaviour of all Nokia's phones I have used. Why is this different for the n900? The chances volume will change in your pockets are almost non existent. I have never had the problem the volume adjusting by itself...

Agreed and there's a brainstorm for that 
PLAYBACK & VOLUME CONTROL WITHOUT UNLOCKING THE SCREEN

With ipod touch i can change volume even if display is locked, but with n900 i cant. Seriously, this could be option in the settings menu!

Replace both instances of the string "tklock_mode_ind" with "tklock_m0de_ind" in /usr/lib/hildon-desktop/volume_status_menu_item.so. This will restore the old behaviour, with the exception that you can't actually see the volume slider on the screen anymore (when it is showing the "slide to unlock" screen, that is). The buttons will have no effect when the screen is off.
please help!

The fact that the buttons are locked is a feature that I would expect to happen in this case.
