I tried modules speedstep-smi and speedstep-ich with kernel
2.4.22. But it does not reduce frequency so much:
# cat /proc/cpufreq
minimum CPU frequency - maximum CPU frequency - policy
CPU 0 1200000 kHz ( 85 %) - 1400000 kHz (100 %) - performance
# echo "0%50%50%powersave" > /proc/cpufreq
# cat /proc/cpufreq
minimum CPU frequency - maximum CPU frequency - policy
CPU 0 1200000 kHz ( 85 %) - 1200000 kHz ( 85 %) - powersave
Also I tried 'cpufreq=100000-1400000' kernel option.
What more can I do?
