Summary: cpu scaling fails, locked on lowest setting at all times https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=205305 [EMAIL PROTECTED] changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status|NEEDINFO |ASSIGNED Flag|needinfo? | ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2006-09-20 13:21 EST ------- So, some interesting progress on this from my end. After seeing the fan messages in David's output, I decided to check my fan. I noticed it didn't seem to be running. I played around a bit and didn't seem to be able to force it on. I also noticed the computer was running at about 54 degrees celcius. I opened up my laptop, cleaned out the fan (which was full of crap) and rebooted. The fan spun right up. Since doing this, my computer seems to be scaling no problem. I forced the CPU speed up to 1.4Ghz and it has stayed there since (which in the past, it would eventually reset itself to 600Mhz). I looked at the temperature now and it is at 45 degrees celcius. So, it SEEMS like my machine may have been overheating and the computer was trying to compinsate by lowering the cpu level. Is there a hard limit somewhere in the kernel (again probably something that would have been added in late August/early September) for temperature? Seems like this may have been causing my issues. Will let you know if this stops working, but I've been running for about 2 1/2 hours without issue. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
