[SOLVED]Help with cpufrequtils

Hey

I'm trying to setup cpufrequtils so that when I unplug the AC it'll switch governor. I've followed the wiki and when I try to modprobe acpi-cpufreq I get this message:

[casper@casper-laptop ~]$ sudo modprobe acpi-cpufreq
WARNING: All config files need .conf: /etc/modprobe.d/framebuffer_blacklist.pacsave, it will be ignored in a future release.
[casper@casper-laptop ~]$

Though cpufreq still *works*, but only if I set the governors manually.

When I try to cd to /etc/acpi/ it says:

[casper@casper-laptop ~]$ cd /etc/acpi/
bash: cd: /etc/acpi/: No such file or directory
[casper@casper-laptop ~]$

That means I'm unable to create the script which makes it possible to automatically switch governor.

Hope there's a fix

Regards
Casper.

EDIT:

Took a closer look at laptop-mode-tools and got it to work :-)

Okay what does that mean?:/

- Yeah took a quick look at laptop-mode, but couldn't find a good wiki or way to set it up

@patroclo7:

Yeah just installed, but nothing seems to have changed. And yes it did, lol, it's late sorry.

After editing the handler.sh it doesn't change anything

Thanks for the answers!
