Zen Kernel and phc-intel

Hi!
I installed the kernel26-zen and I have a pentium-m. I already used the kernel26-ck and I installed the phc-intel package to undervolt my cpu. I installed it also for the kernel26-zen package (build it for this kernel) but it doesn't undervolt the cpu and my cpu is getting very hot. Anyone an idea why it don't work? It works very well with the kernel26-ck.

Best regards!

As far as I understand you still have to tune the voltages yourself. Did you do this?

Yes I used this already in kernel26-ck and standard kernel so the voltage-file is already present at the same folder and in rc.local I have the same entry to write the settings at every boot.

Re: Zen Kernel and phc-intel

Installing phc-intel only installs the kernel module for ONE kernel. You'll have to re-install it for kernel26-zen (and then it won't work on your other kernels). I personally modify the PKGBUILD to build it for all kernels.

linux-phc is already in the zen-stable tree.

Re: Zen Kernel and phc-intel

@ngoonee: Yes I know, I installed it already for kernel26-zen, and it seems that it finds the module, but it doesn't work correctly.

@bangkok_manouel: Yes it is. But I speak with a zen developer and he said, that they patched a wrong phc-intel in the zen-kernel and I have to install phc-intel manually.

Its very strange. Arch seems to find the module, but the undervolting doesn't work. Maybe this is caused by the wrong phc-intel module, that is integrated in the zen-kernel itself.
