Description Michael Stather 2005-10-04 14:50:20 UTC

I filed a bug report for 10.0 (which is now closed) about my SpeedStep not
working with the kernel governor. With the userspace governor everything works
fine. I was told that "userspace" would be the default anyway for 10.1, but it´s
not.

Comment 1 Forgotten User ZhJd0F0L3x 2005-10-04 16:02:57 UTC

I think you misunderstood this. We want to get rid of "userspace" completely, as
soon as the kernel governor works for all setups. We do not want to make
userspace default. Do you have the 10.0 bug # at hand?

Comment 2 Michael Stather 2005-10-04 16:16:00 UTC

Oh, ok I misunderstood this :(
The bug I originally files was #118735
It has been marked as a duplicate of #113615

I will try to implement something to fall back automatically to userspace (or at
least issue a loud honking warning at boot :-) but it is not ready yet. Sorry
for the inconvenience.

I'll keep this open as an enhancement, so it will stay on my radar.

If ondemand does not work, powersaved now automatically tries the userspace governor, so we should get a working setup if at all possible.
