 |
|
Hello,
I am attempting to setup conservative scaling on my via C7, but when I try to modprobe the e_powersaver module I get this error:
| Code: |
modprobe e_powersaver
FATAL: Error inserting e_powersaver (/lib/modules/2.6.25-gentoo-r7/kernel/arch/x86/kernel/cpu/cpufreq/e_powersaver.ko): No such device
|
and when I try to start cpufrequtils, I get this error:
| Code: |
/etc/init.d/cpufrequtils start
* Enabling conservative cpufreq governor on CPU0 ... [ !! ]unknown or unhandled CPU?
|
| Code: |
uname -a
Linux hawthorne 2.6.25-gentoo-r7 #1 SMP Tue Sep 2 18:44:51 MST 2008 i686 VIA C7-D Processor 1500MHz CentaurHauls GNU/Linux

thanks for any help... I think it might be a wrong architecture or something. I believe I'm using x86, but this isn't for sure, how would I check? |

My guess is :
PC-compatible
CONFIG_X86_PC
Location:
-> Processor type and features
-> Subarchitecture Type (<choice> [=y])
of your kernel config file.
Also there is a selection for the type of architecture in:
Location:
-> Processor type and features
-> Processor family (<choice> [=y])
Yours would be VIA C7
CONFIG_MVIAC7:
