Patch to set the governor of any monitored cpu. (2.96 KB, patch)
2006-04-15 05:13 UTC, Sandino Flores-Moreno 		none Details | Review

Description Sandino Flores-Moreno 2006-04-15 05:10:58 UTC 
Please describe the problem:
cpufreq has a preference to select the monitored cpu.

Clicking over the applet, a list of governors is displayed ir order to select
one of them.

However, the applet internally calls cpufreq-selector without specifying the
monitored cpu.

Then, the governor is always applied to the default cpu (0 in the current
implementation).

This bug can be noticed in multicore cpus.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Grab a machine with multicore enabled.
2. Add the applet.
3. Select a cpu different to zero.
4. Change the governor.


Actual results:
The governor is set to the cpu zero, not the monitored.

Expected results:
The monitored cpuś governor should be changed.

Does this happen every time?
Yes.

Other information:
A patch, but this simple bug guide is too stupid and let me change to the
classic bugzilla way.

Hi tigrux, thanks a lot for the patch. I'm going to rewrite the popup-selector soon, so I will fix this bug.
