I have used the breezy packages by shadoi on my laptop, so it's a packaging problem. And now it works well with suid root.

Are you all working as root or is there a > another way to make it work correctly ? no no no, NEVER use root as a user account :) you have to setuid the freqset utility e installs in the module subdirectory # chmod u+s freqset This way whenever it is executed, it is executed as its owner, root, not as its real user, you. but some see it as a security hazard To avoid sec problems, I set it to r-s--x--x rights and it is owned by root.

[e-users] cpufreq module and rights
Hi, I have a message error with cpufreq module when trying to change the cpu freq governor. I've seen in the source code that the module directly write into /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor , but this file is accessible only by root. Are you all working as root or is there a another way to make it work correctly ? Thank you ! Laurent Laffont
