You do not need any special configuring of the util.s You will install - at least this was my experience (dell/amd too). The only thing You may set - which governor to use, like: echo powersave > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor though default one (I think it is 'performance-on-demand' or like that) should take of it well. Your problem is missing util.s/modules. If You have the above packages installed, then check if You have the modules loaded: cpufreq_ondemand acpi_cpufreq powernow-k8 You do check w/ lsmod |grep -E 'cpufreq|powernow' command. In my experience, it was not, so I added it to /etc/modules and rebooted the machine. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
