[Bug 462125] [NEW] CPU scaling always use Dynamic on Performance Profile (even if Performance policy is set)

[Gustavo A. Díaz]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: kdebase-workspace

I think since PowerDevil exist, CPU scaling never worked correctly. On Jaunty and now current using Karmic, when I change from Dynamic to Performance on PowerDevil profiles configuration, after i reboot it uses again Dynamic Policy on Performance profile (even is before it was set to Performance, the GUI says Performance but i see the CPU are working on Dynamic). Now, when i go again to the PowerDevil configuration GUI and i press apply again, it returns to Performance policy. But as said, on reboot again returns to Dynamic.
In another partition i am using OpenSUSE 11.2 RC1 and this works correctly: on Performance profile using Performance policy, is always working as expected.

This happen on any system that the CPU allows scaling (at least, on
every of my workstations and notebook). So, i think is not hardware
related at all.
