I booted Ubuntu 8.04 off the disc with acpi=off. The CPU frequency applet now shows the frequency ACCURATELY at 2.53GHz. When installing the applet I got a warning that CPU scaling is not supported. I have not seen this previously
grep Hz /proc/cpuinfo now says model name : Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 2.53GHz cpu MHz : 2532.701 dmidecode.txt has not changed Max Speed: 1500 MHz Current Speed: 2500 MHz dmesg.log has several entries under (maybe due to acpi being disabled?) acpi_freq: Unknown symbol acpi_processor_notify_smm acpi_freq: Unknown symbol acpi_processor_unregister_performance acpi_freq: Unknown symbol acpi_processor_preregister_performance acpi_freq: Unknown symbol acpi_processor_register_performance Please be explicit on how to acquire any further requested info. (me nOOb) :-) Thanks! -- 'cpuinfo' says 9999 MHz & scaling not working on P4 laptop https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/225319 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
