[LAU] Ubuntustudio and frequency scaling

[Ralf Mardorf]

You could use command line without a tool.

Set the governor to performance by running

echo performance | sudo tee /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/scaling_governor

Check the status by running

cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/scaling_governor

Disable performance mode by either running

echo powersave | sudo tee /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/scaling_governor

when on an Intel CPU or by running

echo ondemand | sudo tee /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/scaling_governor

if your CPU should be an AMD.
