User-Agent: Opera/9.80 (X11; Linux x86_64; U; en) Presto/2.6.30 Version/10.60

I've tested on 32 and 64 bit updated version of upcoming 11.3 release.

Sometimes I need to change CPU governors prior to e.g. entering a game, otherwise with ondemand it will behave erratically (frequency changes). This isn't anymore possible under 11.3 RC2 - under systemsettings -> Power Management, I do not see governors when configuring CPU properties under specific profile, it also doesn't work with command line tools:

...

powersave -f INFO: using SYSTEM upower ERROR: not yet implemented using upower

Hi Kristjan, please move the power devil part to an another bug (and assign it to kde-maintainers@suse.de), the powersave tool has no relationship with KDE and power devil. In fact I removed this legacy script from pm-utils because I don't want to maintain it. After dozen complaints I got, I partially ported it from HAL and moved it back. The port in 11.3 is incomplete (I got a complaints only, not a help ...). So this is an unwanted child for me. In case of governors, the setup can look like this: GOVERNOR=ondemand for CPU in /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*; do if [[ $CPU/cpufreq/scaling_available_governors =~ $GOVERNOR ]]; then echo $GORVERNOR > cpufreq/scaling_governor fi done in case of queries - well in case that every cpu has a different governor, tool can simply return unknown state, don't it? I'll try to implement it, but too late for 11.3. The newest version will be in Base:System BuildService project, or you can use the sources from http://gitorious.org/opensuse/pm-utils-suse I'll inform you through this bugzilla -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Please apply the attached patch to your /usr/bin/powersave script.

Then your system does not have the cpufreq support. See

http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=blob;f=Do...

sure my system is supported. I had working powermanagement and cpufreq support using opensuse 11.2. And I think i had working cpufreq support with opensuse 11.3 (but not very long) -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
