cpufreq now called cpupower see: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Cpufreq#cpupower

nodefourtytwo commented 12 years ago

Thanks for the info! How did I miss it? I'll update the code to allow the use of both cpupower and cpufreq depending on which one is installed.

Vrtak-CZ commented 12 years ago

any news?

nodefourtytwo commented 12 years ago

Yes, it's more complicated than I thought.

cpupower doesn't give any quick tool to read the frequency or the available governors as cpufreq-info did.

I don't have much time to work on it yet, so any patch is more than welcome.

Hi, I don't get it, why don't you use cpupower frequency-info -g ? There is a bunch of options to frequency-info that would give you the data you want in a simple format…

Am I wrong?

LeCoyote commented 12 years ago

FWIW, I'm in the process of adapting your extension so that it can use cpupower. I'll get back to you soon.

LeCoyote commented 12 years ago

It's done. I'll fork and upload my changes.

nodefourtytwo commented 12 years ago

Awesome! Thanks.

I started working on it yesterday evening with victornoel info, but I really lack of time. So I welcome gladly contributions.

LeCoyote commented 12 years ago

No problem :) Also, the readme should probably be edited to reflect the fact that we don't depend on cpufreq-info anymore.

nodefourtytwo commented 12 years ago

It's been added so I close the bug
