Hi, I am unhappy that atlas requires cpufrequtils which conflicts with cpupower. They are different tools and I suspect atlas needs cpufrequtils only to ensure CPU frequenecies won't change up and down during performance tests. That's bad. for CPUFREQ in /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/scaling_governor; do [ -f $CPUFREQ ] || continue; echo -n performance > $CPUFREQ; done could achieve the same, or writing some value into /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq would do the same as well. There is no need to install the cpufrequtils stuff, at all. Now I can uninstall cpufrequtils and install back cpupower because atlas failed anyway. :)
