Hi all! This issue was written over and over, and a lot of people, including me, have more questions. Don't want to crosspost, cause I think that it is related. On Celeron M laptop, with cpufreq and powerd, also with this in rc.conf: performance_cx_lowest="LOW" economy_cx_lowest="LOW" I have C2 and 1400 -> 174 MHz. Should it be set "LOW" for performance_cpu_freq and economy_cpu_freq? Battery lasts for almost 3 hours with no X and exten- sive cd/modem/hdd work. Temperature is 34-38. On my amd64 box (754, 1800 MHz), with Coll'n'Quiet, acpi2 and the same confi- guration, I have just one C (C1) and two states (1800 and 800). Usb is com- piled into kernel. (One poster removed it and got more steps.) Anyway, the box is really cool, so it is just a matter of curiosity. Is there anything, beside using usb as module, to get more c's and put frequency down dinamicaly? And no temp measurement on this nforce3 mobo. Best regards Zoran
