Public bug reported: Binary package hint: powernowd
After updating to gutsy my cpu frequency scaling stopped working. I am pretty confident that it was fine in feisty. powernowd complains about the governour file not being available in sysfs. That is no surprise since the CPUfreq driver is not loaded. Manually loading acpi-cpufreq fixes the issue. Some output of commands that might be relevant: > . /usr/share/powernowd/cpufreq-detect.sh ; echo "$MODULE - $MODULE_FALLBACK" speedstep-centrino - acpi-cpufreq The speedstep-centrino module can not get loaded here... maybe you should update the cpufreq-detect.sh script? It seems to be obsoleted by acpi-cpufreq anyway. > uname -a Linux chewbacca 2.6.22-14-generic #1 SMP Sun Oct 14 23:05:12 GMT 2007 i686 GNU/Linux > cat /proc/cpuinfo [ after runing modprobe acpi-cpufreq and restarting > powernowd ] processor : 0 vendor_id : GenuineIntel cpu family : 6 model : 13 model name : Intel(R) Pentium(R) M processor 2.13GHz stepping : 8 cpu MHz : 800.000 cache size : 2048 KB fdiv_bug : no hlt_bug : no f00f_bug : no coma_bug : no fpu : yes fpu_exception : yes cpuid level : 2 wp : yes flags : fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 apic sep mtrr pge mca cmov pat clflush dts acpi mmx fxsr sse sse2 ss tm pbe nx up est tm2 bogomips : 1597.97 clflush size : 64 I am using a Thinkpad T32p.
