Description of problem: During init startup service at "start service cpuspeed" I get the following error "FATAL: Error inserting acpi_cpufreq ... no such file or directory" When trying to start cpuspeed manually I get the following erro "Error: Could not open file for writing: /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor Error: No such file or directory" Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kernel 2.6.18-1.2200.fc5 How reproducible: persistent Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install latest kernel for fc5 2. Reboot the system Actual results: cpuspeed didn't start Expected results: cpuspeed is started Additional info: Processor is Intel Celeron M 1.5 GHz see attached for dmesg output
Created attachment 139057 [details] dmesg output
I'm sorry, the error message on system startup is "No such device" and not "No such file or directory"
This is not a bug about cpuspeed. If you use the other frequency scaling tools (like cpudynd, cpufreqd, powernowd, and so on), it will also fail. The reason which creates this bug is that the directory of /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq doesn't exist. You should re-compile your kernel enabling cpufreq support.
Thanks for the info. I've made a clone of this bug for the kernel
I believe this was just cpuspeed loading the wrong driver, should be fixed in the latest update. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 212031 ***
