[KERNEL] Kernel (deprimed_test) - Break It If You Can

[prime]

Don't know if it is just me but the overclock/primed script for deprimed no longer works on winner's RC3 build.

It fails on the insmod call. To fix, I edited the overclock script in /system/bin and replaced "MODULE = overclock.ko" with "MODULE = overclock" and changed "insmod $MODULE" to "modprobe $MODULE".

Everything works after those changes.

Modprobe does not work on all ROM's, I'm interested in what has been done to break insmod compatibility (modprobe works because I'm the only one who actually symlinks the kernel directory to the kernel name .

@everyone
Testing deprimed #21 right now, smartass governor included among other changes. Will upload when satisfied with pre-testing.

Well I definitely appreciate the symlinking

I am not positive why insmod isn't working....I know VPN Connections is still working and I'm pretty sure it uses insmod instead of modprobe to load the tun module. It could just be a quirk with my device but wasn't sure so I thought I'd post my findings.

I don't really want to run fix permissions or anything else to figure out what the cause may be since I got everything working and this ROM/Kernel combo is running great for me. I suppose I can make a back up and help troubleshoot if needed.

TUN is built in.

Prime, now I'm excited to try out build 21. If its been posted already and I missed it I appologize, but, what is this smartass governor? How does it differ from on-demand and interactive?

I have not uploaded it yet, I modified smartass to function on the Motorola Droid and call my modification the bumblebee CPU governor.

I will explain what it is in the OP before I upload, still some testing left to do before uploading. I had not planned on spending so much time adjusting kernel code, but here we are...a properly functional ondemand governor (no more 300000 Sampling Rate upon changes) and the new bumblebee governor.

 

[prime]

I went ahead and uploaded the kernel, either run the update_deprimed routine or download from the usual link.

Please test the ondemand and bumblebee CPU governors thoroughly, I will update the OP/tweet later to include changes....I have to go to a meeting right now.

Report issues here as they arise, enjoy.

 

[BoddhiC]

Will try it out

I'm loving CPUtuner btw.

I do as well, bought Peter (the dev) a "beer" in the market as a donation.

Very friendly guy.

How is CPUTuner different/better than SetCPU?

And moving fwd, is the milestone oc not going to work? i know you can do everything manually but with the milestone app it makes it so much easier than editing a file. and when i tried manually editing it (I wanted 1000mhz as max instead of 900) i just kept boot looping. and thanks again for all your hard work

Tried the update_deprimed script and got an error. Bad address 'bit.ly'

Its profiles are more broken down to how much battery life you have and its extreme power save also turns off 3g, wifi, gps, and sync if they are on. Its easier to just check it out, its a free DL and won't hurt anything

More customizable profiles and lower CPU usage/ battery usage.

I am unable to enable blue tooth with the latest kernel. I had winner's build 31 installed this morning, blue tooth was fine, upgraded to the latest kernel, it won't turn on when I try to enable it through the settings. I reverted to the previous deprimed test and it's working again.

 

[BoddhiC]

I hadn't used bluetooth yet, but can confirm that it was working on the last build, but not on the latest.

BT not working, good thing I rarely use it.. I don't know what Bumblebee is about since the OP isn't updated but I am testing it. DPOverclock loads with primed script. It seems really smooth and menus load really fast.
