But at least I got the battery module back in :-)

Attached are the 3 packages to isntall it. It is based on titans meamo40 tree. I also included the debian changelog and patches tree for those who like to play with it themselves. And maybe titan can take it too for hist further developments...

Be warned, no guarantees, just for the brave!

The packages are to big to upload here. You can find them at http://marcel.mesa.nl/n900kernel

When you flashed the phone (or even if you just do an OTA upgrade) it wipes out both the 'kernel-power' and 'kernel-power settings' packages. Unless both are reinstalled the phone will only load the stock kernel and standard settings. Whatever settings you had before just don't matter, the phone will only run standard settings.

So resetting the power settings is not possible or necessary while running the stock kernel. IOW, that's not the cause of the reboots. Maybe the reflash didn't go quite right, maybe you loaded the wrong firmware, maybe your phone has developed a hardware problem, or maybe some software is causing trouble. But trying to fix it by attempting to change power settings while running the stock kernel will get you nowhere.

I'd like to test your kernel.

How do I install:

kernel-power_2.6.28-maemo41_armel.deb
kernel-power_2.6.28-maemo41_debian.tgz
kernel-power-flasher_2.6.28-maemo41_armel.deb
kernel-power-modules_2.6.28-maemo41_armel.deb

Just download to my N900 and install with file manager/program manager?
Do I need all files? Are kernel-power-settings working?

Can I make a request to disable fbcon/framebuffer console on boot? I think it's very unstable and can cause crashes when enabled.

Now I'm running mirakels power-kernel v41. Stable so far but one problem:

I cannot record a video, the camera app is closing when I try to record a video. Same problem as with Titans power-kernel v40.

Video recording on Titans power-kernel v37 is working.

My N900 is running at 500-900 Mhz. I did some heavy duty tests at 900 Mhz - the N900 is stable at 100% CPU load on 900 Mhz for several minutes.

I just rebuild titans meamo40 kernel with te pr1.3 kernel updates. I did not explicitely add the framebuffer console and have not much time right now to lool into it. Thats why I included the patches so other people can jump onto it...

AFAIK it's generated by the bootloader. If you enable fbcon in the console it will be overwritten by the kernel boot messages but fbcon is unstable and leads to crashes.
That's why I have disabled it.
If you nonetheless want to test it you can install the older version maemo8 from http://repository.maemo.org/extras-d...free/k/kernel/

(sorry for the delay, I've have been sick, and been distracted from maemo)

Video recording is only possible with 600 - 800 Mhz. Anything higher will crash the camera app. :(
But with Titans kernel-power v37 I was able record videos with 900 Mhz.

First I need to find their latest patches and make sure they don't interfere with normal operation.

For me the kernel power (settings) were not wiped after OTA firmware update, mine was still installed and all my custom profiles worked

Yes, I tried to raise the voltages too but no success.

My current freqs are: 0:20,90 500:30,360 900:54,500
Avoiding all other frequencies.

@titan any chances of including compat-wireless in a next build?

note also dsp frequency may be changed at higher cpu frequencies. See your config file.

Ihad massive probelms with camera at higher cpu frequecies so limited mine to 750 MHz. I installed syslog and found 'dspbridge' errors when camera did not work.
