Unfortunately to pick up all the power management goodness, the information has to be defined somewhere - this is what ACPI is for. Either you disable ACPI and lose a lot of functionality, or you follow what ACPI defines to get all the power mangement goodness and unfortunately sometimes pick up bugs in the ACPI tables. You buy a PC, you get ACPI. Hewlett-Packard, Intel, Microsoft, Phoenix Technologies and Toshiba for ACPI :-) -- Atom N280 frequency scaling not supported https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/422858 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
