Hello, I'm using the stock arch kernel on my Samsung X05 Centrino notebook.
I'm not quite sure if it's a real problem - but let's see.
cpudyn is working. It scales my cpu between 1400 MHz and 600 Mhz. The governor is powersafe.
But a boot the first start of "acpid" always fails - but cpudyn is working.
Do I need acpid? The batterymonitor works.
Next thing - my fan is working and working although my cpu is nearly sleeping.
Here's some info from /proc/acpi.
[~]
cat /proc/acpi/processor/CPU0/throttling
state count: 8
active state: T0
states:
*T0: 00%
T1: 12%
T2: 25%
T3: 37%
T4: 50%
T5: 62%
T6: 75%
T7: 87%

cat /proc/acpi/processor/CPU0/power
active state: C2
max_cstate: C8
bus master activity: 4488910f
states:
C1: type[C1] promotion[C2] demotion[--] latency[000] usage[00000010]
*C2: type[C2] promotion[C3] demotion[C1] latency[001] usage[00539846]
C3: type[C3] promotion[--] demotion[C2] latency[085] usage[00001420]
[~]
cat /proc/acpi/power_resource/PFAN/state
state: on
system level: S0
order: 0
reference count: 0
[~]
cat /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/THRM/*
cooling mode: active
<polling disabled>
state: ok
temperature: 30 C
critical (S5): 120 C
active[0]: 65 C: devices=0xdffe9fe0
So it seemes, that one hand doesn't know that the other hand scales the cpu.
What do I have to do, that my fan is "quiet" and cools only if needed.
ATM the CPU-Temperature is about 30°C - and the fan is running like hell!

Jap. that's exactly what I mean.
It's working great -- hm, only 2 things bother me.
At shutdown I get the error, that /etc/rc.d/laptop-mode isn't found.
And starting it manually: I get this error:
root [/home/jo]
/etc/rc.d/laptop-mode restart
:: Stopping laptop-mode [DONE]
:: Starting laptop-mode [BUSY]
/usr/sbin/laptop_mode: line 784: echo: write error: Das Argument ist ungültig
[DONE]
root [/home/jo]
Das Argument ist ungültig == the argument is not valid.
779 # Set kernel setting, showing an error if this fails.
780 # Parameter 1: sysctl/proc path
781 # Parameter 2: the value
782 set_sysctl() {
783 echo "Executing: echo $2 > $1" >> $OUTPUT
784 if ! echo "$2" > "$1" ; then
785 echo "SETTING OF KERNEL PARAMETER FAILED: echo $2 > $1"
786 fi
787 }
Hacking into that file and >ing it to a file it get's me this:
Executing: echo 1 > /proc/sys/vm/dirty_background_ratio
But I don't know what's wrong.
