I set it there just for completeness, that is all. :)
Plus, I guess I didn't want to depend on a 3rd-party script to do it for me. Back to top |

I switched over to my Debian sid setup, and I found the answer to why cpufreq-related modules were not loading in Ubuntu.
From /etc/init.d/loadcpufreq: :: Code :: ### BEGIN INIT INFO
# Provides: loadcpufreq # Required-Start: $remote_fs $syslog # Required-Stop: # Default-Start: 2 3 4 5 # Default-Stop: # Short-Description: Load kernel modules needed to enable cpufreq scaling # Description: Make it possible to save power by reducing # the CPU speed when there is little to do. ### END INIT INFO # License: GNU General Public License. # # Based on scripts found in the powernowd package version # 0.97-1ubuntu6 on Ubuntu. # # This script is an interim solution until the default Debian packages # will load the proper kernel modules at boot time. Track #396117, # #342014 and #367307 to see status on this. # <URL:http://0pointer.de/blog/projects/dmi-based-module-autoloading.html> # claim the later kernels support autoloading of these modules, so I # guess In the future this script can be dropped. [pere 2007-05-12] Now that recent Liquorix kernel releases statically link cpufreq-related modules for various procies, it makes the above script redundant and even perhaps useless in Debian. Given that there is a design difference between how Ubuntu handles cpufreq support, and Debian's implementation, and taking into consideration that the target audience of Liquorix kernels are Debian-based distros (even though Ubuntu historically is Debian-based, it has since taken its own path and rendered its repos incompatible with other Debian-based distros), would Liquorix continue to favor and abide by Debian's implementation, or be made compatible with Ubuntu-based distros?
