We are finally fixing this. ** This bug has been marked a duplicate of bug 1885730 Please switch default, hwe, oem kernel flavours governor to CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_DEFAULT_GOV_ONDEMAND=y , such that advanced userspace utilities such as game-mode can be later used to rev-up to to performance, or rev-down to powersave. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/344252 Title: CPU Frequency Scaling defaults to "Performance" instead of "OnDemand" Status in cpufreqd package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Binary package hint: cpufreqd Ubuntuforums thread : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1098459 In Jaunty 9.04, a few days ago, it was noticed that the default CPU frequency is now "Performance". Before, it was set to "OnDemand". This can be changed back again on a per-session basis by clicking on the CPUFreq applet (in gnome) and changing the setting to whatever is desired, or changed permanently either by updating "/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor" or using "cpufreq-selector -g ondemand" However, when using a laptop, this is not desirable default behaviour as the effect on battery is obvious. This setting should be "OnDemand" by default.
