Description of problem: The init scipt for cpuspeed should allow user to set minimum and maximum frequency. Pentium 4 CPUs allow scaling down to 12%, which makes them a bit unresponsive in GUI. I wish to be able a minimum like 500MHz for scaling. Additional info: This can be done by adding something like the follwoing lines before starting the daemon: echo MIN_FREQ > /sys/class/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_min_freq echo MAX_FREQ > /sys/class/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq or taylored a bit to support multiple CPU systems, but IIRC cpufreq does not support SMP yet, so this sould be enough.
Fedora Core 3 is now maintained by the Fedora Legacy project for security updates only. If this problem is a security issue, please reopen and reassign to the Fedora Legacy product. If it is not a security issue and hasn't been resolved in the current FC5 updates or in the FC6 test release, reopen and change the version to match. Thank you!
