CPU speed/freq
Hi, is there a program for amd64 processor, to control its frequecny/speed (and change it) and temperature? I have tried any packages on repository but they seem not working (cpudyn, emifreq, cpufreqd). Thanks Giulio

I have tried any packages on repository but they seem not working (cpudyn, emifreq, cpufreqd). I believe powernowd is one that works for the frequency. For temperature, you need something that works for your mainboards diagnostic chip (assuming it has one). Len Sorensen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

powernowd returns: PowerNowd encountered and error and could not start. Please make sure that: - You are running a v2.6.7 kernel or later - That you have sysfs mounted /sys - That you have the core cpufreq and cpufreq-userspace modules loaded into your kernel - That you have the cpufreq driver for your cpu loaded, and that it works. (check dmesg for errors) If all of the above are true, and you still have problems, please email the author: [EMAIL PROTECTED] /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq seems not existing in my system. However I have not idea to make working powernowd. Giulio

Have you installed the module powernow-k8.ko? /Gudjon powernowd returns: PowerNowd encountered and error and could not start.

The governor powersave may decide which speed to use within this range. current CPU frequency is 800 MHz. and the directory /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/ exists on my computer. Perhaps you could purge the packet powernowd and reinstall it I think I did that once but else I am out of ideas.

Hope it helps /Gudjon I have removed module powernow-k8 and re-loaded. Now it works:) cpufreq-info works and return optional frequency configuration. cpufreq-set (from root) returns errors. I have read man-pages, but it doesn't work. Can you show me a correct use for cpufreq? What is exactly 'governor'???

Re: CPU speed/freq
Does this work now? For many months, ondemand was a guaranteed OOPS within a matter of hours (if not minutes); I've been using cpufreq-userspace and the associated daemon.

BTW, kernel 2.6.12 is going to bring an even better governor for amd64 and laptops (and mine is both), named conservative.

Re: CPU speed/freq
Been using ondemand for months now (since 2.6.10 IIRC). No oopses related to it. And haven't had to keep an eye on any daemon anymore :) Rafael Rodríguez El Martes, 14 de Junio de 2005 19:54, David Wood escribió: Does this work now?

Great news. I'll have to try it out. :) On Tue, 14 Jun 2005, Rafael Rodríguez wrote: Been using ondemand for months now (since 2.6.10 IIRC). No oopses related to it.
