Re: cpufrequtils



You should stay with the ondemand governor, you will not see any
difference, except on yout electricity bill (and on the environnement
too).

Anyway, just edit /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor
and it should work.
(as root : echo "performance"
> /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor)

You may need sysfsutils to set it up at boot time : edit /etc/sysfs.conf
and write :
devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor = performance

Best Regards.
