Thanks for that. I should have explained my situation more specifically, sorry about that! So I have a KDE 4.4 install, but the Power Manager says that I don't have support for CPU stepping. However, I am loading acpi-cpufreq and managers, cpufreq_ondemand cpufreq_powersave. I also have cpufrequtils installed and on the command line I can modify it _as root_. I.e. sudo cpufreq -s -f 1000 -g ondemand But if I run it as my regular user, I don't have permission. I'm _assuming_ that this is the reason that KDE doesn't support CPU scaling.. -c -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
