Subject: cpufrequtils: ondemand CPUFreq governor not available Package: cpufrequtils Version: 007-1 Severity: normal
*** Please type your report below this line ***
Dear Debian folks,
I installed Debian Sid/unstable. cpufrequtils seem to be installed
automatically by the desktop task. Unfortunately I observe the following error.
$ sudo service cpufrequtils start
CPUFreq Utilities: Setting ondemand CPUFreq governor...disabled,
governor not available...done.
$ LANG=C cpufreq-info
cpufrequtils 007: cpufreq-info (C) Dominik Brodowski 2004-2009
Report errors and bugs to cpuf...@vger.kernel.org, please.
analyzing CPU 0:
no or unknown cpufreq driver is active on this CPU
maximum transition latency: 0.00 ms.
I read `README.Debian`, `/etc/default/cpufrequtils` – where `GOVERNOR=ondemand`
is set – and [1] but I could not find out why the ondemand governor is not
available on my system. Could you enlighten me please? Maybe something else
should be set up as default.
Thanks,
Paul
