This should not be a low priority bug. It contributes to the headlines that Ubuntu has a worse battery life than windows. Netbook users who need battery life want to turn powersave on. The problem is that /etc/init.d/ondemand will after 60 seconds of booting change the frequency scaler to

This has nothing to do with gnome-power-manager - it doesn't do anything with the governor any more. In addition to that, changing the governor doesn't really give you any gains anyway. Setting the governor to powersave just means your processor takes longer to do the work it needs to do, and

I like my laptop to not run at full speed (ie full temperature) when it's just sitting on the desk not being used. ondemand brings in the performance when it is needed, so why change the default? (also note that this is a gconf setting, so you can choose to override the default as you wish) --

I got your point but if we're talking about Linux for human beings I don't think that gconf is a solution, old linux users know how to fix it or give an special option, but would be good make the things a bit easy for the other ones... not all laptops are so faster... Ed.- On Fri, Mar 7, 2008

I think leaving it at ondemand is the solution. It will switch to full performance when the system is busy, so users will get the performance they expect from their hardware. Anyone who actually wants to change it will already know what cpu scaling is and won't be scared of gconf, surely?

Another comments: if the computer is on the desk and don't being used, is the CPU being used? , is there any big difference between ondemand and performance on that case? IIRC CPU scaling helps to save the battery life on the laptop cases, but if I'm plugged to AC I would like to have my laptop

If they don't know about it, they won't care about it because ondemand will make their CPU fast when they need it. If they bought a 2.0GHz CPU laptop, ondemand just will going to scale to 2.0 as were necessary, if I'm opening openoffice or something similar, are u sure that ondemand will
