I have not tried this in recent Ubuntu yet, but I can tell you that pstate seems to work very well in Debian's 3.10 kernel on my Ivy Bridge laptop. The problem thus might not be caused by intel_pstate itself but by a combination with some other option(s) and/or patch. It seems to increase the frequency much faster than the ondemand governor; but this does not seem to be bad; in any case, my fan is off most of the time.
Maybe this helps you. I can check it on Ubuntu too, but I just wanted to let you know my experience on Debian first. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1188647 Title: Please change intel_pstate default to disable To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1188647/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
