Description Ivan Zakharyaschev 2008-03-27 23:41:15 MSK
kpowersave-0.7.2-alt2

My powersaved doesn't really work (no speedstep module), but that's not
important: a program mustn't segfault.

I don't know whether it's the same bug as
https://bugzilla.altlinux.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11625 .
Steps to Reproduce:
[ivan@dell ~]$ sudo service powersaved status
acpid is stopped
powersaved is stopped
[ivan@dell ~]$ kpowersave
ERROR: Communication problem with kpowersave, it probably crashed.
[ivan@dell ~]$ KCrash: Application 'kpowersave' crashing...

[ivan@dell ~]$ sudo service powersaved start 
Starting acpid service:                                                        
                                                                               
   [ DONE ]
Starting powersaved service:                                                   
                                                                               
   [ DONE ]
[ivan@dell ~]$ sudo service powersaved status
acpid is running
powersaved is running
[ivan@dell ~]$ kpowersave
ERROR: Communication problem with kpowersave, it probably crashed.
[ivan@dell ~]$ KCrash: Application 'kpowersave' crashing...

Why no speedstep module? If 2.6.24 - try acpi-cpufreq
Comment 5 Damir Shayhutdinov 2008-03-29 17:09:51 MSK
Проверьте на новой версии.

Actually, it's OK, yes, acpi-cpufreq works fine. It was my fault in
understanding: I simply didn't understand that it works because some daemon used
to always bring the CPU back to the highest frequency. Now I turned it off.
