Advocates and prospective users of cpufrequtils may benefit from reading the threads starting at http://lists.debian.org/debian-boot/2012/06/msg00679.html and http://lists.debian.org/debian-boot/2013/03/msg00189.html Two selective quotations from Ben Hutchings' mails: 1. cpufreq drivers are now auto-loaded and te default governor is ondemand, so most users won't need cpufrequtils installed any more. 2. cpufrequtils should not be needed, as the Linux kernel in wheezy is supposed to enable frequency scaling by default. Please can you temporarily remove cpufrequtils ('apt-get purge cpufrequtils'), reboot, and send the contents of: /proc/cpuinfo /proc/modules /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/uevent /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_driver /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor /var/log/dmesg Following the last piece of advice seems appropriate for anyone in doubt about the effectiveness of the ondemand governor. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
