How to manage frequencies with powernowd under Ubuntu ?

[dodik]

I'm using Ubuntu. Everything works fine but I do have a problem with the speedstep management of powernowd. I used to use cpufreqd and I could manage easily frequencies if the power was on or not. How can I do that with powernowd (I'd like the computer to run at 1.8 Ghz all the time except when I'm on battery. The current configuration makes the computer running at 600 Mhz on battery and scale it to 1.8 Ghz when there's on overload.

Thanks in advance

PS: Excuse the english of a poor french...

The way it is working is correct (in my opinion). The laptop will run cooler this way, but it will provide all the power you need. ... JD Hurst
