frequency scaling on D525MW not working properly

[Sven Gaerner]

Hello, I bought an Atom based Intel D525MW board. DragonFly release is running on that system. But I have a few minor issues. The CPU is getting somewhat warm (about 55 degrees celsius). This is not a real problem, because it is not too hot. But I think this occurs because the frequency scaling does not work. Running "sysctl hw.acpi" prints the following lines (I cut the output to one logical CPU, but for the other three the output is identical): hw.acpi.cpu.cx_lowest: C1 hw.acpi.cpu0.cx_supported: C1/3 hw.acpi.cpu0.cx_lowest: C1 hw.acpi.cpu0.cx_usage: 100.00% last 5000us Also there is no sysctl hw.acpi.cpu.px_dom0.select available, so I guess powerd is also running not properly and the CPU frequency is not scaled in any way. After looking into the dmesg output, I guess some driver does not recognize parts of the hardware/ACPI stuff correctly (see below; the text is repeated for the other 3 logical CPUs). cpu0: on acpi0 cpu_cst0: on cpu0 cpu_pst0: Can't get _PSS package - AE_NOT_FOUND The dmesg is attached. It would be great if there is someone who can help me to get this fixed. If more details are necessary, just let me know. Sven
