That was daemon's problem, maybe some rules has changed since 2.6.16 or so, when it was updated. The userspace governor works form me, i setup laptop on minimum, and if building a kernel switch on maximum: cd /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/ echo userspace > scaling_governor dd<scaling_min_freq>scaling_setspeed # or max here cd /tmp Another crash in your original report is related to cpu hotplug, but it seems a known problem and work-in-progress: ,-*- |Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> |Archived-At: <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/479386> | |Yet another attempt to resolve cpufreq and hotplug locking issues. `-*- I don't know how broken it may be in 2.6.18 with all debian's updates. Maybe cpu-hot-plug isn't useful for default kernel, i also don't know. Close bugreport, please, if problem will strike again you may reopen it. > Thanks for your help.
