Ric95: Exactly what Bryce said. Turning off services can be a bit fraught and the powernowd service has two different scripts which can cause it to be run. Unfortunately powernowd doesn't seem to support a setting in /etc/default/powernowd to allow users to cleanly disable it in a similar manner to other initscripts hence the need to edit the script directly.
Bryce: You are bang on the money. This looks like Bug #109643 (or rather that bug looks like this one since this was filed first). ** Summary changed: - [nvidia-glx] Frequent lockups when NV 3d enabled + [nvidia-glx] Frequent lockups when NV 3d is enabled and cpu scaling is on -- [nvidia-glx] Frequent lockups when NV 3d is enabled and cpu scaling is on https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/94739 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
