I also confirm this bug in Lucid with all updates. The problem is inside /etc/init.d/ondemand script. (Bug #576022)
At line 19: ... /etc/init.d/ondemand -- background should be changed to ... /etc/init.d/ondemand background. Ondemand script waits for 60s after startup and then swithes CPU scaling to ondemand mode. It considers only [start|background|stop] as the first parameters when being run, so "--" is something which causes the script to do nothing. This solves the problem (at least for my laptop with Pentium Dual Core, fresh installation of Ubuntu 10.04). However this problem does not occur on my desktop (Core2Duo, recent upgrade from Interpid to Lucid) although I have not removed the mistake from ondemand script... strange -- CPU Frequency Scaling defaults to "Performance" instead of "OnDemand" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/344252 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
