http://www.linuxtopia.org/online_books/linux_kernel/kernel_configuration/re44.html this suggests that it will shot the hardware associated for TSC. Phylosophically speaking which one is better? shutting down kernel component associated with it or the hardware component of the system... I am inclined to believe हरद्वार in this case... because it is the system heartbeat we are talking about... All other freq scaling services stopped or disabled already.. no effect yet... maybe they have innershia :-) good suggestion though! -- ______________________________________________________________________ Pune GNU/Linux Users Group Mailing List: ([email protected]) List Information: http://plug.org.in/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/plug-mail Send 'help' to [email protected] for mailing instructions.
