Hi all,
sampling_down_factor is a tunable for the ondemand frequency governor.
Intuitively, higher values of sampling_down_factor make ondemand act more
like performance. For those computers where ondemand has a performance
penalty compared to performance, this is good, with the obvious downside

Something should change. Version 18 is in the archives and the
various ppas. As far as I can tell, 18 should not be made available

Is this really a misconception? I though
FWIW, I heard the problem is that the installers/upgraders will
happily install these broken drivers, leaving your computer unable to
fully boot. If the drivers just refused to install, there would be
less of an issue. I'm lucky enough to have a card that uses the
-current driver, but I saw a few
Thanks folks,
It does sound like it is just a hardware specific bug. I will take

ondemand is for battery usage. It would still be nice to have
conservative for plugged in situations, like a desktop.
I did try to google first, I just didn't see a clear answer.

Just in case you haven't seen some of the previous conversation on

I think the issue is that you need to have the user enter the password
