@Pyoverdine: You should look in your BIOS at the CPU setting for something called "Cool 'n' Quit", "Dynamic Clock" or "Frequency Scaling" that should be "Enabled". Do not use "Auto", because that may only work on Windows. If you you cannot find such an option, you may have an option "AM2 Boost" instead, please disable that (only if there is no C 'n' Q option)...
"Your BIOS does not provide ACPI _PSS objects in a way that Linux understands" almost always means that Cool 'n' Quiet has been disabled in the BIOS. This kernel message also isn't really an error, it just tells that the kernel will not use CPUFREQ powernow-k8 support because Cool 'n Quiet has been disabled, so it's doing exactly what is requested. Please verify that C 'n' Q has indeed been disabled in the BIOS, and then determine what you want. If you don't want Cool 'n' Quiet you can ignore this message (powernow-k8 has been built-in in the kernel so you cannot prevent this message from being displayed). -- powernow-k8: BIOS does not provide ACPI -PSS objects in a way that Linux understands https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/364156 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
