Re: cpuspeed: 2g running at 800m

Looks like a wrote too soon as well.  I realized the seconds "OPTS" line was commneted out so I uncommented it and commetned out the first one and restarted.  So far all seems well.  My cpuspeed.conf file looks like:

# cat /etc/cpuspeed.conf
VMAJOR=1
VMINOR=1
#OPTS="-i 2"
DRIVER="powernow-k8"
#DRIVER="centrino"
OPTS="-i 2 -a /proc/acpi/ac_adapter/*/state -t /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/*/temperature 75"
#

I also added

echo 1400000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_min_freq

to /etc/init.d/cpuspeed.

Now I need to go off and figure out the events stuff.  If there good resource of what events there is?  I would like to keep keep the processor as fast as it can go while pluged into power and only slow down when on battery. 

Thank you all for you time.

Looks like I spoke too soon.  I ran the "echo 14000... " when I was docked and all was well, speed could be set to 1.4 even 2G.  Now that I am on battery or even power (not docked) I would only get the CPU to go to 800 Mhz.

If I run the command

echo 600000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_min_freq

to set the speed to 600 Mhz and it does it.  Then I do the same thing with 2G

echo 2000000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_min_freq

The fastest the CPU will go is 800Mhz.  Why will it not go any faster when it is undocked.  This is frustrating.

Thank you.

I don't use cpuspeed. I use speedfreqd

But anyway..

If on battery and you want to go at least 1.4G You could use your ACPI
script to do this

echo 1400000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_min_freq

That'll hard set it at 1.4G.
