I know this isn't the best place to ask, but maybe someone here knows.
Who is maintaining the longrun(1) (should probably be longrun(8)) utility? The author is listed as Daniel Quinlan <quinlan@transmeta.com>, but mail to that address bounces.
The longrun utility frobs the MSR on TransMeta processors to switch between performance and economy modes.
On my laptop, currently running 2.4.21-pre5-ac1, I get the following error:
# longrun -p longrun: error reading /dev/cpu/0/cpuid: Invalid argument
# ls -l /dev/cpu/0 total 0 cr--r--r-- 1 root root 203, 0 Aug 30 2002 cpuid crw------- 1 root root 10, 184 Aug 30 2002 microcode crw------- 1 root root 202, 0 Aug 30 2002 msr
I've seen this the last couple 2.4.2x-pre versions, but I don't know exactly when it stopped working. I assume somewhere along the line the CPUID interface got reformatted. I'm pretty sure this kernel is configured correctly:
# CPU Frequency scaling # CONFIG_CPU_FREQ=y CONFIG_X86_LONGRUN=y CONFIG_X86_MSR=y CONFIG_X86_CPUID=y
Help? Ian
