The control of CPU speed was removed from the KDE desktop control a while ago (Just before openSUSE 11.4 came out as I recall and the KDE 4.6 release I think). Again, if you look at the following link you can see the "correct" procedure to setup YaST-PowerManagement: http://forums.opensuse.org/blogs/jdmcdaniel3/yast-power-management-control-y... So, pm-profiler is started as required. Further, one might ask yourself. If YaST-PowerManagement does not control CPU speed, what does it control? The Desktop setup takes care of the rest. As far as I can tell, the CPU speed Governor that is used is the default (On Demand for the openSUSE 12.1 default kernel configuration) as set in the kernel, a kernel compile configuration you can set can be changed if you compile the kernel yourself. If there is no intent for YaST-PowerManagent to set the CPU speed, it needs to be removed and decommissioned as a installation option in openSUSE 12.1. Then, with only the KDE Power Management, the kernel default will be all there is unless you decide to use my bash script cfu. So I must ask, what does YaST-PowerManagement allege to do? What is left for our users to use to set the CPU speed?

So, who do we report the fact that the pm-profiler service does not work in openSUSE 12.1?

Profile name # 2. Empty PM_PROFILER_PROFILE="low_latency" Again, what I found was the default governor used is that selected as the default for the kernel. And, this is not overridden by pm-profiler. The default on this system was set for the governor ondemand in the kernel which continued on without regard to the pm-profiler setting. Now, just how the term of "low_latency" turns into the governor of Performance on an Intel i7 is unknown by me. But, this is what happens on openSUSE 11.4 correctly with an almost identical computer and identical pm-profiler setting. I did look at the same file in openSUSE 11.4 and this file was identical to that in openSUSE 12.1.

Can you please run 'rcpm-profiler restart' as root and check if this is any different afterwards? Also please try to run '/usr/lib/pm-profiler/enable-profile low_latency' which enables the profile directly? Governor now set correctly? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
