This package will flash the kernel image upon installation.
After the installation, you need to unplug the USB cable, completely shutdown your device, and boot again to activate the kernel.
For more details and help please visit http://wiki.maemo.org/Kernel_Power
If you want to deinstall this kernel to revert to the original Nokia kernel, you must run the "Deinstall kernel-power" application. Deinstallation in the Application Manager is not possible.
This custom kernel contains additional modules for IPv6, packet filtering, QoS, NAT, tunneling, kernel configuration, updated DSP driver, builtin ext3 for booting from other media, ext4, XFS, reiserfs, NTFS read support, ISO9660, UDF, CIFS, automounter, squashfs, unionfs, device mapper and dm-loop, cryptography, cryptoloop, EFI partitions, UTF8 codepages, mouse+joystick input, PPP, PPTP, radio RDS, serial support, USB/IP and generic USB device drivers, battery info, WLAN monitoring, overclocking, kexec and experimental USB hostmode support.
Warning: Overclocking voids your warranty, may damage your device and is at your own risk! Overclocking is disabled by default and can be configured during runtime.

Please note that I have no control about what is shown in the description in this page. Due to bug in maemo.org it shows the description of the latest experimental version and not of the stable one (v24). Please only comment on the stable (v24) or the future stable one (v34) on this page. Experimental versions in between are only for developers and only available from extras-devel.
Aside from v28, every version of this kernel(I used 23-27) has worked well on my device. I am now running version 34 and have had no unexpected results.
I don't understand why the author doesn't post instructions in the description, or at least link to it. Why rely on the comment section for that? Anyway, followed the instructions in http://wiki.maemo.org/Kernel_Power. The overclock went surprisingly easy! Now my phone works much smoother. Thank you! For the uninitiated: you're basically installing one app in the the App manager (provided you have previously installed rootssh) and entering a few command lines in the xterminal. Very simple. Took five min :)
for users who accidentally (??) installed this package: it will not overclock your device! You might not even notice that is installed except for possibly higher stability and some speed improvements. For quick deinstallation see http://wiki.maemo.org/Kernel_Power#Deinstallation
@Gerard: if you have one of the earlier experimental versions of this kernel installed, please follow the guide at http://wiki.maemo.org/Kernel_Power#Upgrade_from_older_versions_.28.3C_maemo24.29
Impossible to install : conflicts with kernel-maemo
I've been using this kernel (and earlier versions) for months on my device and it has been rock stable and in every way a big improvement compared to the stock Nokia kernel. The wiki page is http://wiki.maemo.org/Kernel_Power Overclocking instructions: http://wiki.maemo.org/Overclocking GUI for frequency selection: http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=50067 Mobile hotspot: http://mobilehotspot.garage.maemo.org/ PPTP tutorial (the modules are included): http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=36172
