[21:43] <daladingdong> fresh install on AMD Athlon(tm) X2 Dual-Core QL-65 , cpu scaling doesn't run. works fine on kxstudio, avlinux

[22:02] <aloo_shu> Hey JackWinter, seen on #opensourcemusicians . need help today:
[22:02] <aloo_shu> ubuntu 16.04.3 64bit install (ubuntustudio, lowlatency kernel), cpu scaling is not available (AMD Athlon(tm) X2 Dual-Core QL-65). Propietary microcode is shown as installed. cpuscaling worked fine in kxstudio, an ubuntu 14 spinoff. what could i try installing to pull the appropiate cpu driver?  - http://paste.ubuntu.com/25500811/
[22:09] <JackWinter> aloo_shu: no idea to be honest :)  don't have amd and haven't used ubuntu for many years.  so the processor is running at full tilt and you want it to powersave?
[22:15] <aloo_shu> the reverse, it's at half speed so maybe on 'ondemand', by default, I want 'performance' when running a daw and/or effects
[22:21] <krytarik> aloo_shu: See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuStudio/Setting_CPU_Governor
[22:27] <aloo_shu> krytarik will give installing cpufrequtils a shot, but I have a feeling the underlying cpu driver might be missing, since setting performance governor i sort of essential to glitch-free audio, so I'd expect setting the governor being available if possible in ubuntustudio. anyway, will be gone to log out and back in
=== daladingdong is now known as aloo_shu
[22:38] <aloo_shu> krytarik , cpufrequtils installed logged back into fresh session, I can set governer manually at least now. cadence is still greying out the feature, would you happen to know cadence well enough to say why? will try an applet as alternative
[22:38] <krytarik> Nope, sorry.
[22:40] <aloo_shu> still funny that ubuntustudio doesn't offer a way to set governor through gui, or setting performance as default or in session startup..
[22:41] <aloo_shu> but thanx, I am 1 step further
[22:41] <krytarik> !info ubuntustudio-controls
[22:41] <ubottu> ubuntustudio-controls (source: ubuntustudio-controls): Ubuntu Studio Controls is a small application that. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.3 (zesty), package size 31 kB, installed size 117 kB
[22:42] <krytarik> It's not yet updated though.
[22:44] <aloo_shu> been there, done that. allows to set the audio group for the user, and tr on or off, no governor
[22:44] <aloo_shu> *rt* , not tr :)
[22:45] <krytarik> Yes, because that's only committed to the branch, but not uploaded yet.
[22:47] <aloo_shu> I have the 1.3 regular for xenial, so I see. trying to find some enlightenment on cadence in #kxstudio, meanwhile
[22:58] <aloo_shu> this solved it for the while: xfce4-cpufreq-plugin . cadence is not inherently an ubuntustudio problem. but setting governor is, so consider bundling the applet and cpufrequtils if necessary, kryatarik . but off-topic: I would love to see parts of kxstudio merged into ubuntustudio, more so since main maintainer of nearly everything there has a full time job now. thanx anywqay, consider this solved
