[KERNEL] OC/UV Kernel (test)

---

Hi,

avetny asked me to take a look at the g2x kernel to add OC/UV, so i did build a kernel with oc/uv added. You can read more about the kernel on the o2x thread. With this kernel you should be able to use Pimp My Cpu to manage cpuspeed/voltages on the fly.

I do not own a g2x device so i could not test this kernel, try at your own risk.


g2x-kernel-2.6.32.9-fakeShmoo-cpasjuste.5.zip : db7a11365e8520424f1ed579b666623f



EDIT :
Since i do not have the device, if someone wants to continue the work (fix wifi/bt) you'll find the sources and changes here : https://github.com/Cpasjuste/android...mits/fakeShmoo

Note that you NEED to add "init.d" support to the kernel initramfs :

Add at the end of the init.rc script :

# Execute files in /etc/init.d before booting
service sysinit /system/bin/logwrapper /system/xbin/busybox run-parts /system/etc/init.d
    disabled
    oneshot

And maybe the "99complete" script to "/system/etc/init.d" :

#!/system/bin/sh

sync;
setprop mcr.filesystem.ready 1;

Thanks a lot for this. Look forward to giving it a go

Kernel boots fine, however,it breaks wifi. Will continue testing and see how everything else it

Arg that's strange, i don't see why wifi would be broken :/

It is...when I flashed I say the wifi modules loading.

But wow, this kernel is fast. Smartbench just shot through the roof.

Note that it's not OC by default. Could you try Pimp My Cpu on it to see if it work ? Thanks
For the wifi module, i'll wait for "avetny" if he knows anything.

That's what I mean by wow it's fast. I installed pimp my cpu and have it running @ 1200/300 while I do some benchmarking. Pimp my cpu is working very well.

Ha that's very cool. Many thanks for the "bravery"

Just need to fix wifi now :x
I won't be able to do so myself without a device to test so some help will be required. The recovery install script just copy the "drivers/net/wireless/bcm4329/wireless.ko" module to "/system/lib/modules/wireless.ko" on the device. Maybe on the g2x the modules are located somewhere else.

Let me check to see where the drivers are located.

Update: Yep it's located in /system/lib/modules

Upon quick look it appears as though the permissions for the .ko file might be incorrect. Let me try something to see if it helps.
