Strange, I had no powernowd installed - maybe that's why my machine seemed a little loud.
I installed sysfsutils and added devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor=ondemand devices/system/cpu/cpu1/cpufreq/scaling_governor=ondemand and also set this manually to avoid rebooting. I get reported that my athlon x2 4400+ is now running at 1 Ghz instead of 2.3. Do I trust this info? Will check wattage with/witout.... I also searched for cpufreq and found /lib/modules/2.6.28-8-generic/kernel/arch/x86/kernel/cpu/cpufreq: p4-clockmod.ko speedstep-lib.ko I tried to lsmod if any cpufreq-deamon was running - nope. I tried to load some - nope. Antex, what lsmod / lsmod -l gives you? What governors are there? I think some amd-specific things are missing in this kernel build. Maybe that's our problem? In other words, if I sudo apt-get purge powernowd and sudo apt-get install powernowd no amd-powernowd modules appear or load? Unless generic cpufreqd is builtin into the kernel? I am not sure if this is a new bug - same thing with 2008.04 and my other machine - a phenom - also had to get freq-scaling working manually - or related, because for me with or without scaling I have no mouse (can be moved sometime and then cursor disappears for good) - but machine still works remotely / headlessly so far o.k. -- [jaunty] Keyboard and Mouse Frozen on Login Screen https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/335297 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
