Sorry for going into flamewar related area, but could You please stop bloating this thread with this crap? Personally, i respect (and even like) Your overall contribution to community on this forum, but since d*ckish russian roulette script, you create at least same amount of bloat as people unable to read entire topic for possible solution.

Rationale: extras-devel repository, keeping in mind all warnings about eating dogs taking wifes etc, is still supposed to be used and cross-tested for all kind of problems, then, reporting them.

I know that guys about battery temperature are most irritating, but Fcam drivers were reported SECOND time, and guy just excused in advance, that he was not able to read whole topic. Also, he asked for working combination of code versions, EXCLUDING extras-only (because kernel-power is in devel, so from start this question exclude "stick to extras" variant).

I feel little disgusted by explaining such basic things to intelligent person, especially that You know all of this already... In such a light, your post was totally useless, ignoring what user asked about. Also, it creates another useless post (mine), cause I'm sick of seeing Your ego-creative useless bloat again and again - and it is NOT less irritating that battery temp posts.

Thanks in advance and i hope that no offense taken.

and
"Enhanced Linux kernel for power users (settings)" 0.11

All of these are "not installable" (conflicting application packages)

Am I missing something?
Yes, You're missing that vi_ post wasn't aimed at helping anyone. So bloat count caused by him increased +1 post above what i written here...

Kerlen-power v23 is still in testing just because former developer dropped it without any notice, and other package maintainers doesn't want to give maintainer rights to pali or anyone else. So, It's outdated as hell. Current version of kernel-power that can be considered "Stable" is v46, you can find it in devel.

Also, outside repositories, there is v46wl1 version, that incorporates bleeding-edge wifi drivers - allow to use packet injections, like aircrack-ng thing. The only difference is because injection drivers modules were added, so it's also stable.

Kernel-power from pali is v47 and it got wl1 things also, and its in extras-devel. You're encouraged to try it and report problems, but keep in mind all extras-devel warnings. Also, please search this thread before posting bug report - maybe this bug was already posted.

Thank You for Your question, cause because of this my post is not as useless as it was before, thanks to vi_...

Any hint/confirmation/... welcome!

EDIT: as one report of v46 + CSSU claims there is no problem, this probably rules out CSSU, meaning v47 has our attention :/
As we can read in topic linked by petur, this problem is already solved, and was unrelated to both CSSU and kernel-power (expired certificate of supl.google.com). Petur forget to edit his post after that, so i add it here - we can filter out gps thing from possible kernel-powerv47 problems.
