Here is an update. The problem definitely lies in the Ubuntu kernel. I compiled my own kernel based on the Debian/Lenny config file. Upon rebooting, CPU scaling magically worked with no intervention on my part. This leads me to conclude that the amd64 kernel for Intrepid is tainted in some fashion such that what I describe in my first post happens!
How can I log this as a bug so the devteam can see it and hopefully fix it? FYI, there is a great guide for compiling kernels under Ubuntu/Debian: http://technowizah.com/2005/12/debian-how-to-custom-kernel-compile.html -- [2.6.27-7-generic] no cpufreq available https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/288592 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
