Description Dan Noe 2004-10-14 09:05:59 UTC
Recently, I upgraded cpudyn.  After etc-updating and restarting the laptop, cpudynd no longer starts:

 * Starting cpudynd...                                                    [ !! ]

There is no information in /var/log/messages or elsewhere indicating a useful error message.  However, the problem is definitely in the initscript because starting cpudyn explicitly with the exact same options produces the desired result:

root@crow:~# cpudynd -i 1 -p 0.5 0.9 -l 7
cpudynd version 0.99.0 Copyright: Ricardo Galli <gallir@uib.es>
Linux 2.6 cpufreq (/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor) detected


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.  run /etc/init.d/cpudyn start
2.  It fails
Actual Results:  
cpudyn fails to start

Expected Results:  
cpudyn should have started, as it does when run standalone.

Same here with 1.0.

this is because i neglected to put a 'return 0' at the end of checkconfig and the modprobe's were failing silently

fixed in cvs
