Description Dennis Nienhüser (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-03-03 00:46:28 UTC 
cpufreqd didn't work for me because it first checks for the deprecated /proc layout to apply frequency changes instead of looking whether /sys/... was available. I think this should better go upstream instead of applying the patch.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:

Created attachment 26751 [details, diff]
check-sysfs-first.patch

just rearranged some code so that the check for sysfs comes first.
