The script is /etc/init.d/ondemand It sleeps for 1 minute and then sets the scaling governor, based on availability, in the following order: interactive ondemand powersave See also: $ ls -l /etc/rc?.d/S06ondemand lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 18 Mar 8 09:51 /etc/rc2.d/S06ondemand -> ../init.d/ondemand lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 18 Mar 8 09:51 /etc/rc3.d/S06ondemand -> ../init.d/ondemand lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 18 Mar 8 09:51 /etc/rc4.d/S06ondemand -> ../init.d/ondemand lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 18 Mar 8 09:51 /etc/rc5.d/S06ondemand -> ../init.d/ondemand >From your other e-mail: > is somehow showing higher > values than TSC_MHz. > Not sure if this really make sense if TSC_MHz is a max-value (which I > don't know it is). That is normal, and is turbo mode.
