-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi Richard
You can also throttle the speed of your CPU with the command $cpufreq-set -u 800000 This will set the upper bound to 800MHz, meaning your CPU won't be going any faster than those 800MHz. This is the way I am doing it. Not very nice but it works for me.
