Hi,
I'm trying to make acpi driver work with my laptop.
The cpu is an Intel(R) Core(TM)2 CPU T5600 @ 1.83GHz. This is my kernel configuration:
| Code: | Power management options --->

When I execute the command cpufreq-info:
| Code: | tuxy linux # cpufreq-info
cpufrequtils 002: cpufreq-info (C) Dominik Brodowski 2004-2006
Report errors and bugs to linux@brodo.de, please.
analyzing CPU 0:
no or unknown cpufreq driver is active on this CPU
analyzing CPU 1:
no or unknown cpufreq driver is active on this CPU |
Here /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/ does not appear the cpufreq directory:
| Code: | tuxy linux # ls -la /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/
total 0
drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 0 Aug 12 16:52 .
drwxr-xr-x 5 root root 0 Aug 12 16:52 ..
drwxr-xr-x 5 root root 0 Aug 12 16:54 cache
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 0 Aug 12 16:54 topology |
I really can't see where is my mistake... I also tryed to include "Intel Enhanced SpeedStep" in kernel, without any success... does anyone have an idea?
Thanks,
Stefy |

-try build that part as module,
-then check if its loaded with lsmod it will be called "acpi_cpufreq"....
-check again if 'cpufreq-info' if error still exist...
cheers

I followed your suggestion and this is what appened:
| Code: |
tuxy ~ # modprobe acpi_cpufreq
FATAL: Error inserting acpi_cpufreq (/lib/modules/2.6.24-gentoo-r7/kernel/arch/x86/kernel/cpu/cpufreq/acpi-cpufreq.ko): No such device
tuxy ~ # ls -la /lib/modules/2.6.24-gentoo-r7/kernel/arch/x86/kernel/cpu/cpufreq/acpi-cpufreq.ko
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 11298 Aug 13 11:54 /lib/modules/2.6.24-gentoo-r7/kernel/arch/x86/kernel/cpu/cpufreq/acpi-cpufreq.ko |
So this would be the cause: my cpu is not recognized as an Intel Core Duo 
I hope this is not caused by a bug in bios.....
I really dont' know what to do.... |

It seems you have not chosen any processor types for ACPI to use. Try to activate some of these:
| Code: | < > Intel Speedstep on ICH-M chipsets (ioport interface)
< > Intel SpeedStep on 440BX/ZX/MX chipsets (SMI interface)
< > Intel Pentium 4 clock modulation |

I think he needs this driver 'acpi-cpufreq' for his cpu...can you try another kernel version like '2.6.24-gentoo-r8'...coz i see u are using 2.6.24-gentoo-r7...kernel upgrade guide
Edit:
You might want to recheck this part if is correctly set:
| Quote: |
--- Enable loadable module support x x
x x [*] Module unloading x x
x x [*] Forced module unloading x x
x x [ ] Module versioning support x x
x x [ ] Source checksum for all modules x x
x x [*] Automatic kernel module loading x x

Reading the description of the acpi-cpufreq and it support my cpu.
I've checked the "Enable loadable module support" in the kernel and it is correctly configured.
Now I try to upgrade the kernel... Hoping that it solve the problem.
I will tell you how is gone!
Thanks |

The kernel upgrade does not resolve the problem:
Now in kernel I put:
| Code: |
<M> ACPI Processor P-States driver
<M> Intel Enhanced SpeedStep (deprecated)
<M> Intel Speedstep on ICH-M chipsets (ioport interface)
|
The result is:
| Code: |
tuxy ~ # uname -a

I had a similar issue on an Acer laptop, however, it was a Celeron 530 I think. The chip didn't support Intel's speedstep technology which is required for CPU frequency scaling. IIRC the new Celeron family is a single chip Core2.
What's the output of "cat /proc/cpuinfo" ? |

Note
Make sure the service is running though:
| Code: | | /etc/init.d/cpufreqd start |
i think setup might be ok, but if still get error pls troubleshoot slowly..
***You might want to check your bios if you have enabled speedstep on that area....
After you have enabled the bios support:
-use lsmod to check if 'acpi-cpufreq' is loaded(assuming you have autoload in the kernel no need for modprobe i guess)...
-you might also try to dive into dmesg, just a browse if you have see anything
hope it works

The Bios is very minimal: it does not give me information about CPU speed step... 
The cpufreqd deamon fails start:
| Code: |
tuxy ~ # /etc/init.d/cpufreqd start
* Caching service dependencies ... [ ok ]
* cpufreqd requires the kernel to be configured with CONFIG_CPU_FREQ
|
but:
| Code: | tuxy linux # grep CONFIG_CPU_FREQ .config
CONFIG_CPU_FREQ=y
CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_TABLE=y
CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_DEBUG=y
CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_STAT=y
CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_STAT_DETAILS=y
# CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_DEFAULT_GOV_PERFORMANCE is not set
# CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_DEFAULT_GOV_USERSPACE is not set
# CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_DEFAULT_GOV_ONDEMAND is not set
CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_DEFAULT_GOV_CONSERVATIVE=y

CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_GOV_POWERSAVE=y
CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_GOV_USERSPACE=y
CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_GOV_ONDEMAND=y
CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_GOV_CONSERVATIVE=y |
My dmesg: I only report a part of it regarding the cpu and acpi where seems that the cpu is correctly recognized by the acpi....

Probably I will have to consider to update my bios... even if in windows cpu speed step seems to work pretty well... |

can you set that before trying messing with bios....?

I had CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_DEFAULT_GOV_CONSERVATIVE set to yes, I changed it to CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_DEFAULT_GOV_PERFORMANCE as you suggested, but nothing different from before...
I searched for the bios, but HP only gives software for Windows.... I run it with wine but I'm probably missing some software which can install the bios... nothing is simple with this laptop!  |

according to the data u send earlier it was not set...pls post some data to see what is the current setup.
-.config {if u can reduce the output to the area we want would be nice}
-rc-update show{to see if the deamon is starting}
-cpufreq-info {to see what are the errors now}
-lsmod {to see if the driver is loaded}

* Caching service dependencies ... [ ok ]
* cpufreqd requires the kernel to be configured with CONFIG_CPU_FREQ |
I already gave up on this one..without driver loaded it wont work..config looks fine to my eyes...
Problem:
-The problem is acpi_cpufreq isnt loaded...en probably u already mentioned tht it failed to modprobe.
Questions left:
-Why its not loaded, and why it cant be loaded.
Ans:
-Aaah...dunno why, sorry bout that...im gonna have to leave it to somebody else who knows better..
-my last word would be re-check with ls -l if the kernel image you wrote in grub.conf is actually the one from this kernel that you are posting...happens to me sometimes 
Good luck with it..i stop spreading lies now

The kernel loaded by grub is correct...
I hope to find a way to make acpi work on this laptop...
Thanks for your help! |

Try to compile the kernel with (or better without ):
| Code: | | [ ] Future power /sys interface |

Can you please tell me where I can find the "Future power /sys interface"?
My kernel version is 2.6.25-gentoo-r7 |

Look at the first post (your own  ):
| Code: | Power management options --->
[*] ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power Interface) Support --->
[ ] Future power /sys interface |

I recompiled the kernel with the "Future power /sys interface" unchecked: nothing changed
The Bios says the cpu has 6 speed step, but probably the acpi drivers don't recognize it correctly. |

| Have you already tried gentoo-sources-2.6.26-r1? |

I updated recently my kernel from 2.6.24-gentoo-r7 to 2.6.25-gentoo-r7...
Do you think that configuring 2.6.26 this problem could be solved?
I'm really thinking that this acpi problem is in someway related to hardware or HP bios... |

It doesnt hurt to try, the process can easily be reversed by using eselect...assumming symlink is not set though!
-backup your kernel img in the /boot, with cp e.g cp /boot/kernel /boot/kernel.old
-emerge new gentoo-sources...{without symlink}
-follow kernel upgrade guide, the advanced way of copying .config to the new kernel.kernel guide
-emerge eselect if you dont have it, then check the list and pick up the new version.
| Code: | | eselect kernel list |
| Code: | | eselect kernel set <some_num_listed_as_new_kernel_version> |
-copy the new img to your /boot and make sure its the same name as in grub.conf
Now you have multiple kernel version...good luck
P:S
Reverse would be almost the same, updating eselect and updating your kernel img
