Hi, openSUSE Tumbleweed 20240418 is installed on this machine. I am noticing these messages now relating to cpupower-gui in a journalctl -b log output.
https://paste.opensuse.org/pastes/3fa21ae9b076
cpupower-gui has become unable to launch through application menu as well as Konsole now.
I reported a bug on cpupower-gui github page yesterday.
https://github.com/vagnum08/cpupower-gui/issues/119
Started an ICEWM session (I thought it may be KDE related issue). Attempted start from Konsole by passing: # cpupower-gui -p resulting in a failure and output the same as shown in the log file.
Could this possibly be an issue with the newer kernel version? uname -a

What are your thoughts on this situation?
the app is from a private individual's build, not a regular opensuse supported repro and probably has not been updated to comply with updated packages.
I closed my latest message on github about the problem.
fwiw, I tried it and it failed to function. but there are several private builds and I am too lazy to try them all. the commandline package is good enough for me.
I think I discovered the issue.
cpupower-gui-helper.service enabled disabled cpupower-gui.service enabled disabled "cpupower-gui-helper.service" was not enabled or started. I enabled the service. I then powercycled the machine. Now: sudo systemctl status cpupower-gui.service

Ok thank you for this information. I am reading this -> https://doc.opensuse.org/documentation/leap/archive/42.3/tuning/html/book.sl...
I haven't read but be aware the doc you quote is for 42.3, not tw.
I can use '# cpupower frequency-set --governor ondemand' to set the governor settings.
I have created a systemd.service and service script now in order to have the machine boot with kernel using the ondemand governor and it is working.
