The whole settings reset after reboot is just to protect your N900 from bad overclocks, so you don't need to reflash everytime your overclock fails, anyway check this post http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...&postcount=774 go to the bottom of it and you will find how to make custom widgets to apply overclocks on the fly, cheers.

edit: or just do what gtessier00 said if you are sure your overclock is all stable and good.

Let's say you want to stay on 250-805 limits, using the LV kernel:
sudo kernel-config load lv
sudo kernel-config limits 250 805
sudo kernel-config save lv8
sudo kernel-config load lv8
sudo kernel-config default lv8
This way, even after reboot, you'll stay in 250-805
Hope it helped
Sweet deal. Thanks.

I am using "Desktop Command Execution Widget".

It is very handy for me.

Oh damn I voted before reading your post.

I voted for 900Mhz, but I never even tried over that.

Sorry :c

EDIT: OK I'm at 1000Mhz now.. oddly warm this thing, I think I'll go back to 900MHz

my 24/7 is 1150mhz since overclocking was discovered

I'm using Fecn's dbus scripts to automatically adjust the clock speed according to temperature:

Works great, and this way the CPU is never cooked...

1150 works here using "ideal" profile.

Note: I did need to pump up the voltage a little for 850MHz and 950MHz speeds, but 1000, 1100 and 1150 voltage settings are same as "ideal".

I'm likely to settle for 1000MHz as for 24/7 setting.

Mine won't quite make 1150, but runs 1100 stable at 72 voltage.

I usually run 1GHz @62 -- 60 wasn't stable, 61 seemed to be, so I gave it an extra kick to avoid surprises.

I'm at 1000 MHz @ 56 without apparent trouble.

So I voted for 850, but I've never run at a higher rate. If you are thinking that everyone voting crashed at higher than the max they listed, I think several votes such as mine don't reflect that. I have a feeling that mine will do 1Gh with ideal, but don't intend to try.
