[Announce] kernel-power stable v49 in Extras-Testing

[J4ZZ]

I'm getting "conflict with application packages: maemo-kernel config for multiboot" I'm currently using 2.6.28.10power46-wl1 and cannot boot into default power46 anymore. Is that the reason for the error?

Thx in advance for any help,

Greetz,

This is big risk to break system...

No it is not. I don't want to clone KP but to enhance it. And btw extras-devel IS for software one takes risk to have broken system if installs SW from it. Read the wiki. And how is current (v47) better when it is breaking userland functionality (battery readings) . I am sure you have missed my point, don't like the other options.

So in case I have been unclear - I am trying to allow n900 users to be able to play/record 720p video on their devices. dspbridge driver upgrade is just first step. gstreamer-dsp, gstreamer-openmax, libbridge, omapfb - those are userland packages which have to be upgraded/installed too. I still don't have them packaged for upload to extras-devel , that is why I said that kernel patch should not be included in KP until those parts are ready. It does not mean it will burn you,your house or your n900 if installed, OK? And I think it is always better if anyone else but me is able to test/evaluate such huge patch, that is why I attach zip file here. Once I am ready with above mentioned packages(assuming there is kernel support) I plan to talk with MAG/nicolai to implement support for 720p in OMP and CUI2 respectively. But all this depends on kernel, agree?

I saw you recently become a part of CSSU team, well, tell me, should we hang MAG for including QT 4.7.2 with broken raster renderer in CSSU and breaking most of QT apps?

I really appreciate your efforts and hard work of being maintainer of KP and part of CSSU team, please, respect my work too.

got the same issue. I did it from command-line instead and that worked. But I guess that update should be possible to do from the package manager as well.
Anyone who can clarify?

About the multiboot feature, is that like uboot or what do I have to do to boot from SD?
Nothing happened when I put in my SD with the MeeGo dev. on it. Maybe I'm not quite getting how its supposed to work.

Had the same problem with FAM; resolved it by having a tremendous amount of patience and ran HAM once, which resolved it. HAM came up with 2 updates instead of one (dependency problem ?) and managed to upgrade to the latest version.

I updated to the new kernel too and I LOVE IT !
My phone is much faster, snappier than almost ever before, and I have tried a lot !
PKv47, latest CSSU update, LV, CPU 250 - 805 MHz with SmartReflex Enabled .

Woohoo, I Luv my phone !
