Hello, My computer is an AMD64 3200 MHz (real speed 2000 MHz) running OpenSUSE 10.2 x86_64. Everything is fine, but I noticed a strange detail, I don't know how to understand it.
At first I had a KPowersave icon in the KDE systray. By default, it seemed to choose a "Dynamic" management of the CPU. Then, the result of the cpufreq-info told me that the processor's frequency was free to vary between 1 and 2 GHz, and that it was currently running at 1000 MHz. Since my computer is not a laptop, I don't care about autonomy, so I want it to run at 2000 MHz all the time. I selected "Performance" in KPowersave, and it worked as expected: the speed reported by cpufreq-info jumped to 2000 MHz. But after the next reboot, I was back to "Dynamic". I went to the appropriate YaST2 module, but everything was already set as I wanted: Performance in all cases. So I selected "Performance" in KPowersave again, and then quit KPowersave. In case KPowersave was responsible for the problem. To no avail. After the next reboot, no KPowersave, but I was still down to 1000 MHz. My final question is: how do I tell my stupid CPU that it's not running on a laptop, and that it should be at full speed all the time?
