[opensuse] Leap 15.2 : No CPU boost on AMD Bristol Ridge
Hello everybody, I just did a fresh install of Leap 15.2 on my notebook with an AMD A10-9600P (Excavator, Bristol Ridge). While the system works, it is sluggish under load and I notice, that the CPU does not change its core-frequencies. When running watch -n1 "cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep \"^[c]pu MHz\"" I always get cpu MHz : 798.283 cpu MHz : 798.485 cpu MHz : 798.307 cpu MHz : 798.423 KsysGuard (the KDE advanced system monitor) reports exactly the same. The chip theoretically boosts up to 2.4 Ghz and did so under Leap 15.1 and other previous releases. How can I get my CPU to boost again? Any help is highly appreciated! Thank you!

Thank you for your quick reply. I did some testing on my machine. The problem somehow resolved after I first put it to stand-by (closing the lid). After the wake-up the CPU frequencies were back to normal. The CPU also behaves normally after a cold boot. Weird, but hopefully the problem is now solved. Simon Am 03.07.20 um 17:21 schrieb cagsm:
