I just thought of another way to improve the ondemand driver
slightly. There is a file called up_threshold in the
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/ondemand/ directory. This file
defaults to 80 meaning that the cpu use was 80% over the

To whom it may concern
Running a task when the computer is idle and stopping the task when
it's not idle
what I've considered so far and either doesn't work or is too much
hassle:
*finger* - only yields tty usage (useless for tracking X usage)
*w* - ditto
*xscreensaver* w/ *xscreensaver-com

According to the description 'sentinella' seems to be exactly what you
need. It just showed up in unstable though and is a KDE program...
Well, I was looking for something DE-agnostic, preferably a
command-line tool, but thanx for the

I don't know if I have done it in the most efficient way, but you're
welcome to hack the code to do what you want - it is not complex code.
Hey, thanx, David. Although I'm in no way capable of hacking the code

My old Athlon 64 was similar to that, so I had a script setup to
quickly switch to high speed, and a timout option. I would use that
at times when I wanted to run several small programs so they would
avoid the delay, but then if I forgot it

used. You also might want to look at the 'conservative' governor. It
will decrease speed slower, but it also increases speed slower.
I tried it out and on my system it actually performs even worse than
the ondemand governor: the CPU vi
Dne, 02. 06. 2010 18:33:21 je Carl Johnson napisal(a):
Do you know what your actual latency is? When you have the ondemand
governor selected, you can check by 'cat
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/ondemand/sampling_rate' to get
the latency in microseconds. You can write to that any value b
I forgot to mention in my previous response that the kernel
documentation has some information about the frequency governors. The
'linux-doc-*' debian packages have the kernel documentation, and the
directory 'Documentation/cpu-freq/' contains the information that I
used. You also might want to l
