2008-03-07 Thread Eduardo Silva
 I got your point but if we're talking about Linux for human beings
I don't think that gconf is a solution, old linux users know how to
fix it or give an special option, but would be good make the things a
bit easy for the other ones... not all laptops are so faster...

  ondemand brings in the performance when it is needed, so why change the 
 default?
  (also note that this is a gconf setting, so you can choose to override the 
 default as you wish)

2008-03-07 Thread Eduardo Silva
  I think leaving it at ondemand is the solution. It will switch to full
  performance when the system is busy, so users will get the performance
  they expect from their hardware. Anyone who actually wants to change it
  will already know what cpu scaling is and won't be scared of gconf, surely?

I agree with that, my point is about people that don't know about cpu
scaling...

  my laptop is a 1.2ghz pentium m, so it's hardly the fastest thing in the
  world, but I don't think there would be any benefit to not using
  ondemand. It's not going to make the thing noticeably faster.
  Can you demonstrate otherwise?

I open this bug because I feel that ondemand doesn't works as well as
I would like, it makes me feel my laptop a little slower... your
laptop is working properly, that's not my case... maybe will be useful
some feedback from another users. Here we have two points of view for
two different cases/machines... Maybe my problem is an isolated one,
maybe not... is there any forum where we can talk about this ?, more
opinions would be very useful.

2008-03-07 Thread Eduardo Silva
Another comments:

if the computer is on the desk and don't being used, is the CPU being
used? , is there any big difference between ondemand and performance
on that case?

IIRC CPU scaling helps to save the battery life on the laptop cases,
but if I'm plugged to AC I would like to have my laptop working as
fast as possible. Final user needs to feel their laptop faster as they
want, this makes sense to me:

case 1: laptop plugged (AC) = use performance (we don't need to save anything)
case 2: laptop using battery as power resource =  use ondemand

let's ask to the users... this is not a problem for geeks...

Re: [Bug 152808] Re: g-p-m always try to set the main policy to 'ondemand'

2008-03-07 Thread Eduardo Silva
  If they don't know about it, they won't care about it because ondemand
  will make their CPU fast when they need it.

If they bought a 2.0GHz CPU laptop, ondemand just will going to scale
to 2.0 as were necessary, if I'm opening openoffice or something
similar, are u sure that ondemand will switch to 2.0 or 1.6 ? , why
the user need to experience a slower machine if he's connected to AC ?

Ondemand is a good solution for a lot of situations, here we're
talking about the 'Laptop connected to AC' case..



   I open this bug because I feel that ondemand doesn't works as well as
   I would like, it makes me feel my laptop a little slower... your

  Where are the numbers to prove the overhead of ondemand?

good question, but is not necessary to spent some time to get numbers
to see that our machines are a little slower with ondemand.


  I think more facts would be useful :)

It doesn't make sence to me to set a slower CPU when the laptop is
plugged, ondemand is very helpful but my point is performance.

I'm just proposing to change the AC policy from ondemand to
performance. Plug your laptop to AC and do some test using ondemand
v/s performance, which one is more faster ?, which one gives the best
user experience ?.

Eduardo.

I confirm this bug, the icon isn't tangering-looking and blurry (small
size, probably?).

(Not a developer, but a user)
I've just looked at the examples folder, and the oo-cd-cover.odg file 
correctly show an icon (I'm using Dapper's default theme).
