Re: Amd Phenom 2 X6 Cool&Quiet Issue.

Hello.

It is a BIOS Bug of my Asrock K10N78D.

One has not only to enable Cool&Quiet but also AMD Turbo Core Technology or whatever.

I had AMD Turbo Core disabled so acpi_cpufreq would not load.

Solved ( for now ).

Sorry but I will not investigate further.

Thank you for your time and patience.

Bye.

Problem:

dmesg | grep power
[ 10.622426] powernow-k8: This CPU is not supported anymore, using
acpi-cpufreq instead.

modprobe acpi_cpufreq
ERROR: could not insert 'acpi_cpufreq': No such device

Please post your kernel .config.


config attached.

#
# x86 CPU frequency scaling drivers
#
# CONFIG_X86_INTEL_PSTATE is not set
CONFIG_X86_PCC_CPUFREQ=m
CONFIG_X86_ACPI_CPUFREQ=m
CONFIG_X86_ACPI_CPUFREQ_CPB=y

# CONFIG_X86_AMD_FREQ_SENSITIVITY is not set
CONFIG_X86_SPEEDSTEP_CENTRINO=m
CONFIG_X86_P4_CLOCKMOD=m

Does it work if you disable everything under "x86 CPU frequency scaling
drivers" and build CONFIG_X86_ACPI_CPUFREQ directly into the kernel?
