I'm working on getting ACPI working on a Dell D505, and followed the Power Management Guide.

I am having the following problem. When the power is pulled, the CPU speed does not decrease, however, when it is plugged back in, it is lowered from 1600MHZ to 600MHz.

Also, I get the following in messages:

Unplugged:
Code:

Mar 15 15:35:21 laptop logger: ACPI group ac_adapter / action ac_adapter is not defined
Mar 15 15:35:21 laptop logger: Switching to battery runlevel
Mar 15 15:35:25 laptop logger: ACPI group battery / action battery is not defined
Mar 15 15:35:25 laptop logger: ACPI group processor / action processor is not defined
Mar 15 15:35:25 laptop logger: ACPI group battery / action battery is not defined
Mar 15 15:35:25 laptop logger: ACPI group battery / action battery is not defined


Plugged Back In:
Code:

Mar 15 15:36:05 laptop logger: ACPI group ac_adapter / action ac_adapter is not defined
Mar 15 15:36:05 laptop logger: Switching to default runlevel
Mar 15 15:36:08 laptop logger: ACPI group battery / action battery is not defined
Mar 15 15:36:15 laptop logger: ACPI group battery / action battery is not defined
Mar 15 15:36:15 laptop logger: ACPI group battery / action battery is not defined


And then it is stuck at 600MHz

Any ideas or troubleshooting help? I've tried everythign I can think of, thanks!

You can ignore the logger: ACPI group <x> / action <y> is not defined messages. They are created by the default /etc/acpi/default.sh from acpid. If you comment the line logger ACPI group $group... line there, they will go away.

@Crisis: Are you using speedfreq? If yes, what did you put in /etc/conf.d/speedfreq?

@rojanu: Please run
Code:
mkdir -p /etc/portage
echo "~sys-power/powermgmt-base-1.21" >> /etc/portage/package.keywords
emerge powermgmt-base -av

to fix that problem.
