also, the file cat /proc/acpi/processor/CPU1/info gives this processor id: 0 acpi id: 1 bus mastering control: yes power management: no throttling control: yes limit interface: yes Is power management not available according to this file? One more thing is that, only two frequency levels ( 1.86 and 1.6 Ghz) are being used. This does not cause much power saving.. How many levels are actually available on core 2 duo? I cant find any PSS in the DSDT dump. On 12/21/06, Alexey Starikovskiy <alexey.y.starikovskiy@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:
Then you should check your BIOS settings for DBS/EST/speedstep etc support. C1 is the only C-state supported on CoreDuo2. PSS should give you P-states.
