The latest FCAM drivers are required for FCAM or Bless to work with the new kernel 42, I've not tried with 44.

Download to your N900/MyDocs folder

sudo gainroot

cd MyDocs

dpkg -i fcam-drivers_1.0.7-1_armel.deb (press tab after typing fcam to autocomplete)

reboot

The difference between power43 and power44 is only in a different version of u-boot. If some whose system hangs with power44 can try with power43 (after flashing the stock kernel, as per Kieron instructions), run in xterm as root:

apt-get install kernel-power=2.6.28-maemo43 kernel-power-modules=2.6.28-maemo43 kernel-power-flasher=2.6.28-maemo43

And tell me if this version also hangs, it will help me in tracking the bug.

installed 44 today. and sound does not work.
When starting, I have to enter the pin. And even then there is no click and no vibration with the new kernel. And the nokia-handshake-film is not shown. When fully started, pulsaudio does not run and the volume-Buttons don't do anything. Mediaplayer states that it can't play any media. I tried 44 and 43. Both have the same problem.
I Downgraded to 42 and everything is fine again. Is there anything I can do to help debugging this problem ?

Just tried and got the same result as Kieron. Still having trouble getting the power kernel to load though. Looks like it's either dual boot maemo/nitdroid OR maemo/powermaemo for the moment.

For the people who are getting a kernel panic
It seems that the powerkernel is getting installed into /boot/

If this is the case then go root and then

It could be that the 2.6.28.10power44 is a bit different in /boot/ if this is so edit it like that

Also don't forget to edit your item files

I've downloaded the latest to my device but not sure how to save it to MyDocs or copy it there via xterm or filemamager

Bump!
Any idea what the problem might be?
Thanks
