Description of problem: The command 'service cpuspeed stop' fails because, as best I can tell, there's no /var/run/cpuspeed.pid file, and /etc/init.d/functions __pids_pidof() (at line 164) is not otherwise finding cpuspeed's pid. Interestingly, 'pidof cpuspeed' returns the proper pid, but 'pidof -c -o $$ -o $PPID -o %PPID -x cpuspeed' does not. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): cpuspeed-1.2.1-1.36.fc6.1 How reproducible: Every time. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Run 'service cpuspeed stop' 2. 3. Actual results: [root@osprey ~]# service cpuspeed stop Stopping cpuspeed: [FAILED] [root@osprey ~]# [FAILED] Expected results: [root@osprey ~]# service cpuspeed stop Stopping cpuspeed: [OK] [root@osprey ~]# Additional info:
Verified fixed in kernel 2.6.17-1.2431.fc6. Please close. [root@osprey ~]# uname -r 2.6.17-1.2431.fc6 [root@osprey ~]# service cpuspeed stop Stopping cpuspeed: [ OK ] [root@osprey ~]# service cpuspeed start Starting cpuspeed: [ OK ] [root@osprey ~]#
I think I know the real cause of this problem, and it's fixed for real in the update I'm just building (cpuspeed-1.2.1-1.39.fc6)
