Wow. Thread grew so much while I was asleep. lol

Just to report:
- I have been running mine at 900Mhz since 24 hours ago.
- Then have up the ante to 1Ghz since about 18 hours ago.
- 1000/480 to be exact. (cpu/dsp)

I've charged the phone till 90% full, since then:
- I've played SrNokSnes for about 20mins.
- I've played Angry Birds for about 15mins.
- I've watched about 1 hour of youtube videos straight.
- I've watched about 30mins of xvid avi file.
- I've browsed the web for about 2 hours over wifi.
- I've had it left connected to wifi and I slept for 7 hours. (idle)
- I've done a cold reboot about 4 times. (to time the reboots etc)

Now I have 15% battery left. Not bad imo. =P

No PC is required.

When I type this it says:

Suitable USB device not found, waiting

I want to flash right on the device because i have Win7 64 bit witch is no the best working with the flasher. and in ubuntu i don't find where to type the line...
Must the N900 be connected via USB while flashing directly on device? would be very strange...

@Hawaii

I saw that link but it does not have the 900MHz kernels. No need to be mean.

IF YOU DON'T WANT TO HELP THEN DON'T!

sudo gainroot
apt-get install --reinstall kernel kernel-flasher
reboot

Edit: add mp-fremantle-generic-pr to that package list to restore version information too
