 Posted: Thu Apr 10, 2008 10:42 pm Post subject: trying to powersave with QX9650 and kernel 2.6.24-gentoo-r4 |

|
Hi,
I have installed the 2008.0 on a brand new box, which has the Intel QX9650 Core 2 Duo (Quad core, 3.0 GHz, and 45nm). I have tried to follow the Power Guide manual, plus what I could find on our forums, but I continue to get the following error from cpufrequtils:
| Code: | $ cpufreq-info
cpufrequtils 002: cpufreq-info (C) Dominik Brodowski 2004-2006
Report errors and bugs to linux@brodo.de, please.

My kernel settings are as follows:
| Code: | $ zgrep CPUFREQ /proc/config.gz
CONFIG_X86_ACPI_CPUFREQ=y
# CONFIG_X86_ACPI_CPUFREQ_PROC_INTF is not set
$ zgrep CPU_FREQ /proc/config.gz

CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_DEFAULT_GOV_PERFORMANCE=y
# CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_DEFAULT_GOV_USERSPACE is not set
# CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_DEFAULT_GOV_ONDEMAND is not set
# CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_DEFAULT_GOV_CONSERVATIVE is not set

CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_GOV_POWERSAVE=y
CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_GOV_USERSPACE=y
CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_GOV_ONDEMAND=y
CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_GOV_CONSERVATIVE=y |
I am sure that I am missing something obvious, but I don't see it. What am I missing?
Google has not turned up anything for me yet. Beside the Power Management Guide, can you recommend another doc or page?
Thanks! |

| Thanks for the help, but I continue to get the same problem after recompiling the kernel. I think it has to do with either the latest version of the kernel (2.6.24-r4) or with the processor being so new (Intel QX9650 Extreme Edition, 45 nm Penryn). Unfortunately, Google is not shedding any light on the subject... |
