@Anton, I'm finding this one hard to understand, the ACPI tables in your machine have the _PSS defined as:
Name (_PSS, Package (0x02) { Package (0x06) { 0x000002BC, // 700 MHz 0x00007918, 0x0000000A, 0x0000000A, 0x00000728, 0x00000728 }, Package (0x06) { 0x00000258, // 600 Mhz 0x0000332C, 0x0000000A, 0x0000000A, 0x0000061D, 0x0000061D } }) So this explains the earlier limit of 600 or 700 Mhz CPU frequency. However, I don't understand why the 3.0.x kernel is now picking up faster settings for _PSS. Are you comparing the machine when running on AC or battery? Can you attach the ACPI tables to this bug now that you have higher CPU frequencies so I can just sanity check this. do: sudo apt-get install acpidump sudo acpidump > acpidump.log Thanks -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/962947 Title: CPU scaled back to very slow speed, cannot increase speed To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linux/+bug/962947/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
