switch from 'performance'
to
'ondemand' for GNOME sessions.
apt-file search ondemand | grep init.d
initscripts: /etc/init.d/ondemand
So at least on Ubuntu the ondemand init script is part
of the
initscripts package and has nothing to do with
Gnome.
Best,
Jeremy
Thank you :)
On Debian it's
$ cat /etc/init.d/cpufrequtils
#!/bin/sh
[snip]
GOVERNOR="ondemand"
[snip]
from the same script of debian:
<snip>
if [ -f /etc/default/cpufrequtils ] ; then
. /etc/default/cpufrequtils
fi
# if not enabled then exit gracefully
[ "$ENABLE" = "true" ] || exit 0
if [ -n "$MAX_SPEED" ] && [ $MAX_SPEED != "0" ] ; then
CPUFREQ_OPTIONS="$CPUFREQ_OPTIONS --max $MAX_SPEED"
fi
if [ -n "$MIN_SPEED" ] && [ $MIN_SPEED != "0" ] ; then
CPUFREQ_OPTIONS="$CPUFREQ_OPTIONS --min $MIN_SPEED"
fi
if [ -n "$GOVERNOR" ] ; then
CPUFREQ_OPTIONS="$CPUFREQ_OPTIONS --governor $GOVERNOR"
fi
</snip>
The debian way is to have a default config in the directory /etc/default, which
cpufrequtils is sourcing if it exists (see script snippet above). So either you make one
if you don't have one or get informed before calling such config scheme
"idiocy". I don't want to be too hard in my critics but you seem to be a
little too noisy too fast. Make sure you RTFM before posting such judgemental comments on
distros.
J.
anyway, this is idiocy, hence the default can be set
by the
kernel. For
the kernel-generic-default-office-non-real-time a distro
could chose
'ondemand'. This script is nonsense and only cause that
once a month
somebody send a request regarding to xruns when using
jackd.

Ralf
