Yes, I think the dependency is there. When I installed the .deb it complained, and apt-get -f install did the job of installing cpufrequtils. But none of the kernel modules in my /some/path/kernel/drivers/cpufreq directory are called cpufreq* something. They are called amd*something*.mo. Apparently this causes some trouble for the init script in cpufrequtils to load the module (at least for the people in the bugs - there are at least two with similar problems since 2012). I ran out of time to try loading one of them manually to see if I could set it to "performance" after that. Now I have to run to work...... -- ubuntu-studio-devel mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-studio-devel
