Are you running on battery? With my computer (with 0.8, 1.6, 2.0 GHz steps) it would not go up to the highest frequency if it was running on battery power. cat the scaling_max_freq file in that directory to see what the max frequncy is. Plug in your laptop and try again (you might have to change scaling_max_freq manually like "echo 1600000 > scaling_max_freq"). Note you can change frequencies just using echo and redirect (as root): # echo 1600000 > scaling_cur_freq Jonathan _______________________________________________ LinuxR3000 mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pcxperience.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linuxr3000 Wiki at http://prinsig.se/weekee/
