i'll keep in mind and test it
but can you tell me how much standby time it can hold
thanks for help testing
@shnigi
thank you for your effort
hey i remember that when i had powerbias=20, my battery dropped 2 to 3 percent when i slept for like 5 hours. now yesterday i check with powerbias=0 and surprisingly it was 34.5 percent before i went to sleep and was 34 percent when i woke up after 5 hours.
hey karam. i tested using power bias=0 and got like 24 hours with good usage. with powerbias=20, i got 16 hours max
i gor the same result.but can u tell me which profile u edited and what are the settings.like max min upthreshold and sampling rate.evrything.can u just copy and paste the whole file here.wud help a lot.thnxi can test it too.
I'm afraid epitaph has a point here. I've been doing some more digging into how the N900 manages resources and it seems that Open Hardware Manager is in use on our system.
OHM includes cgroup management, and it creates a cgroup filesystem in "/syspart".
Look at the contents of this folder on an un-patched device - they're almost identical to the /dev/cgroup/cpu folder contents on a patched device.
Have a look in /syspart on a patched device - there is no cgroup filesystem there anymore, it's just been moved to /dev/cgroup/cpu by the patch script.
OHM keeps its config files in /etc/ohm and /usr/share/policy/etc/current/. A look around the files in these directories will show you listings of every maemo process and what cgroup they belong in (applications, desktop, launcher...). This is the source of the mysteriously self-organising cgroup directory.
It's not mysterious, its not self-organising, OHM is doing its job as it's been configured to.
The patch script does make one change to the way cgroups are managed by OHM though. OHM manages CPU, memory and "freezer" state for all processes. The patch script only manages CPU and memory.
On an unpatched device, cat /syspart/<cgroup_name>/freezer.state will show you the current state of a cgroups processes.
I've only ever seen cgroups in the "THAWED" state on an N900, so I doubt they ever get frozen unless the device is in standby.
On an unptched device, there are no freezer.state files in /dev/cgroup. Not surprising as the mount of /dev/cgroup/cpu uses options "-o cpu, memory" but not "freezer".
yeah i already now that
but i have read some where that using the patch in other linux systems including maemo5 will make cgrouping do a better job
that is not only confirmed by me
but by many other people not only on TMO
hey wen i rouched the top menu bar line i can see only twp applets in my n900 i.e volume option and battery percentage option... i cant see the all applets like fm transmetter,shortuts,internet,clock,bluetooth etc... how to get it back
