This bug was fixed in the package powernowd - 1.00-1ubuntu3

powernowd (1.00-1ubuntu3) jaunty; urgency=low
* debian/init.d: Don't use ondemand governor if it is not working
for the particular hardware. Thanks to Daniel Gimpelevich for the
improved patch. (LP: #223812, #22
Here is the updated debdiff for Jaunty.
I removed the g-p-m stuff and updated the package description. Should
apply to intrepid package also, since it is the same version.

powernowd package, changing that is beyond the scope of

No, I'm informing you that this is *already* the purpose of the package
in Ubuntu. And ondemand *is* better than powernowd (see what upstream
kernel power management developers
I see. According to you...
* The fix is wrong (essentially because it makes the package do what
description says).
* Package description is wrong (apparently in order to support your
previous assertion).
* Package name is wrong too, it should be named "anything-is-better-
than-powernowd".
* Ori
gatopeich's proposed fix is incorrect. The powernowd package in Ubuntu
implements Ubuntu's default power management policy, which
/deliberately/ does not use powernowd+cpufreq_userspace if a better
governor (ondemand) is available. So that init script would be a
definite regression in another dir
This bug is also reproducible on my ibook: The /etc/init.d/powernowd
script exits gracefully thinking that the ondemand govenrnor has been
loaded when it actually failed.
I "fixed" the script by not checking the ondemand stuff and just running
powernowd.

I also confirm that gatopeich's version of the powernowd script works
for me also.
A small secondary effect is that the gnome cpufreq-applet does not allow
to change the governor. Instead of proposing powersave, performance and
so on..., it only shows "performance" which actually throttles the

I hit this bug after upgrading an IBM Thinkpad T22, and I can confirm
that gatopeich's fixed /etc/init.d/powernowd file appears to have fixed
it.
