Sure, here it is. :^) The CPU mostly stays in powersave mode, at 57% if on mains, and at 28% if on battery. When the CPU load goes over 80% it switches to performance mode and max clock, but not if it's on battery and the charge is below 30%. On this Asus L3000D, AMD Athlon Mobile XP 2600+, CPU temperature stays around 35°C when on battery and around 40°C when on mains (chech it with "acpi -V"), with fan spinning slowly, while without cpufreqd it stays around 60°C and the fan gets loud often. When it cranks for a while (like encoding songs with Ogg Vorbis) the CPU temperature gets up to around 75°C, with the fan going mad. :^) Also, this way I get more than 2 hours from the battery, while without cpufreqd it's around 45 minutes. I would avoid using cpudynd and cpufreqd at the same time, they would probably step on each other's toes. But surely that's not what the OP meant. :^) # /etc/cpufreqd.conf [General] pidfile=/var/run/cpufreqd.pid poll_interval=5 pm_type=acpi #(acpi, apm or pmu) # Uncomment the following line to enable ACPI workaround (see cpufreqd.conf(5)) acpi_workaround=1 verbosity=4 #(if you want a minimal logging set to 5) [Profile] name=Save minfreq=28% maxfreq=57% policy=powersave [Profile] name=Normal minfreq=57% maxfreq=100% policy=powersave [Profile] name=Performance minfreq=100% maxfreq=100% policy=performance [Rule] name=BatteryHigh ac=off cpu_interval=0-80 battery_interval=0-100 profile=Save [Rule] name=BatteryLow ac=off cpu_interval=80-100 battery_interval=0-30 profile=Save [Rule] name=BatteryPerf ac=off cpu_interval=80-100 battery_interval=30-100 profile=Performance [Rule] name=AC ac=on cpu_interval=0-80 battery_interval=0-100 profile=Normal [Rule] name=ACPerf ac=on cpu_interval=80-100 battery_interval=0-100 profile=Performance - -- Nicola Larosa - [EMAIL PROTECTED] "I am afraid that if the United States had to live by the [monetary] rules that are imposed on, say, Brazil, the USA would become a developing country in one generation.
