[Bug 381588] Re: cpu scaling not working properly

2009-07-02 Thread Anton Piatek
My thinkpad (t43p) recently overheated, after changing the fan and heatsink the cpu scaling now works correctly. It seems the issue was simply that the kernel decided to keep the cpu speed low rather than running the fan to cool it down. This bug report can be closed ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu

As you can recreate this with a vanilla kernel, this issue would be better handled upstream. Would you mind reporting this at http://bugzilla.kernel.org/ , where you will be able to answer any questions asked there? Thanks ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- cpu sc

I just downloaded and burnt a Jaunty LiveCD and get the same behaviour - cpu scaling seems to work ok on mains power, but on battery power it forces the slowest speed ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => New -- cpu scaling not working properly https://bugs.launchpad.net/bug

With mainline kernel 2.6.30-020630rc7-generic I have seen my machine force the slowst throttling even when connected to mains. Disconnecting and reconnecting power a few times seems to make it work correctly (note that when the power is disconnected, the scaling follows the selected userspace setti

With the latest mainline kernel (2.6.30-020630rc7-generic) the cpu scaling seems to work fine when connected to mains. However when running from battery the cpu is scaled back to its slowest no matter what governor has been selected. I wonder if there is an element of cpu thermal throttling invo

That's not a gnome-power-manager issue, as that has nothing to do with CPU scaling for some time. Re-assigning it to the kernel for now, as it's likely a kernel issue if the frequency doesn't respond when you change the governor. ** Package changed: gnome-power-manager (Ubuntu) => linux (Ubuntu)
