Package: powernowd
Version: 0.96-2
Severity: minor
There is not enough documentation to get one started.
# invoke-rc.d powernowd restart
Restarting powernowd:
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/cpuinfo_max_freq: No such file or
directory
PowerNowd encountered and error and could not start.
Please make sure that:
- You are running a v2.6.7 kernel or later
yes, 2.6.12
- That you have sysfs mounted /sys
yes, sysfs on /sys type sysfs (rw)
- That you have the core cpufreq and cpufreq-userspace
modules loaded into your kernel
# lsmod|grep cpu
cpufreq_powersave 1600 0
cpufreq_userspace 4412 0
I suppose. You had better be more specific.
- That you have the cpufreq driver for your cpu loaded,
and that it works. (check dmesg for errors)
Better give some examples there. This was a thinkpad r50e.
Without concrete directions, many users can't bridge the knowledge gap.
Not enough information in READMEs etc.
ls /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/
ls: /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/: No such file or directory
# modprobe cpufreq_userspace
# ls /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/
ls: /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/: No such file or directory
# modprobe cpufreq_powersave
# ls /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/
ls: /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/: No such file or directory
