Subject: gkrellm: lack frequency scaling support

Date: Mon, 07 Mar 2005 00:55:27 +0000

Package: gkrellm
Version: 2.2.4-1
Severity: wishlist


I did not find any graph to show the actual frequency of my CPU ...

my laptop supports cpufreq_powersave and so on, so that the freq changes all the time ... and I was expecting grellm to be able to show me that is some graph, in the CPU section, or in a seperated one ...

unless there is a plugin I did not find ?

Hi,

maybe you want to have a look at gkrellm-x86info [1].
Works fine for me.

Regards,
Philipp

Subject: Functionality exists in plugin

Date: Wed, 15 Jun 2005 09:33:57 -0400

DEMAINE,

The frequency scaling support exists in the gkrellm-x86info plugin,
which is in Debian.  Please use that plugin to obtain those stats.

From the description of gkrellm-x86info:

"This gkrellm plugin calculates the current cpu clock speed and displays
it as a gkrellm monitor. This is useful on Notebooks with broken ACPI
and varying CPU speeds."

Thanks,

Brian
