How to control cpu stepping.
I have a Pentium M laptop and just noticed that it does not have a speedstep type thing. I tried watching a dvd and realized it was going way to slow because the cpu was probably at 600mhz and not 1400.
How do I manually instruct the system to make the processor full power? |

If you see the ones above (and you should if your processor supports them which yours does) you can change them. Code:
sysctl hw.acpi.cpu.current_speed=xxx EDIT: sorry... this should have refered to .current_speed in the example above. And you can set it to the value in hw.acpi.cpu.performance_speed to get the max speed in from your system. Hope this helps. |
Note: If these are read only on a running system... we can set the current speed in /boot/device.hints to tell it to use the faster speed on boot.
