-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 It seems that any kernel on my Dell Inspiron 5100 after 2.6.15.6 (including 2.6.17-rc5) 'breaks' my cpufreq in that up to and including 2.6.15.6 I can scale between 300MHz-2.4GHz, but after (starting with 2.6.16) I can only scale between 2.1GHz and 2.4GHz. I've attached the files, sorted by kernel, I assume may be helpful. Let me know if you need any more. - -sandalle - -- Eric Sandall | Source Mage GNU/Linux Developer [email protected] | http://www.sourcemage.org/ http://eric.sandall.us/ | SysAdmin @ Shock Physics @ WSU http://counter.li.org/ #196285 | http://www.shock.wsu.edu/ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.3 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFEfOJ2HXt9dKjv3WERApOWAJ9NfCoUebqYvt4Ia01Sv+oEkn2mRwCgwVgy 5U9EJhEXwfRmQKbNeK0RJQQ= =VCCC -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
