Hi,
I have an Acer Aspire TimelineX 4830TG (Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-2620M CPU @ 2.70GHz) with Ubuntu 11.10 64bit, 3.0.0-13-generic.
Unfortunately I have a heating problem. It seems that all 4 CPUs are running on full speed all the time.
cpufreq-info tells me that the governor changes to "ondemand", as it should be. Also it tells me
PHP Code:
cpufrequtils 007: cpufreq-info (C) Dominik Brodowski 2004-2009
Report errors and bugs to cpufreq@vger.kernel.org, please.
analyzing CPU 0:
driver: acpi-cpufreq
CPUs which run at the same hardware frequency: 0 1 2 3
CPUs which need to have their frequency coordinated by software: 0
maximum transition latency: 10.0 us.
hardware limits: 800 MHz - 2.70 GHz
available frequency steps: 2.70 GHz, 2.70 GHz, 2.20 GHz, 2.00 GHz, 1.80 GHz, 1.60 GHz, 1.40 GHz, 1.20 GHz, 1000 MHz, 800 MHz
available cpufreq governors: conservative, ondemand, userspace, powersave, performance
current policy: frequency should be within 2.70 GHz and 2.70 GHz.
The governor "ondemand" may decide which speed to use
within this range.
current CPU frequency is 2.70 GHz.
cpufreq stats: 2.70 GHz:99.62%, 2.70 GHz:0.00%, 2.20 GHz:0.00%, 2.00 GHz:0.00%, 1.80 GHz:0.00%, 1.60 GHz:0.00%, 1.40 GHz:0.01%, 1.20 GHz:0.01%, 1000 MHz:0.01%, 800 MHz:0.34% (44)
current policy: frequency should be within 2.70 GHz and 2.70 GHz.
I am able to switch the governor, but it tells me anyway that the frequency should be 2.70GHz.
Can you please help me?
