Adding more details here:

- CPU frequency scaling is stuck at lowest frequency upon first cold boot when on battery power.
- Subsequent resume from suspend under battery power, and cpufreq scaling works properly.
- Cold booting while on A/C power results in proper scaling from boot.

Hi Steve,

This bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? Can you try with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO CD images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/lucid.

If it remains an issue, could you run the following command from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal). It will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report.

apport-collect -p linux 367739

Also, if you could test the latest upstream kernel available that would be great. It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs-upstream-testing' tag. This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the 'needs-upstream-testing' text. Please let us know your results.

Thanks in advance.

Jeremy: The bug was still present on the new kernels last time I checked it. Though it is easy to solve, if you know what are you looking for.

Last times I installed an Ubuntu or Mint machine (Core2Duos and Atoms), I had to cope with it: The CPU will remain at the lowest frequency most of the time. On the Atom it even causes stuttering on CPU-demanding applications (like Flash, or Compiz efects).

I think that the root of the problem maybe the threshold that is used to increase the CPU speed: It's too hight!
If I remember correctly it is 90%. The problem is, that with mostly-single-threaded apps, even if one thread is running at 100% is hard to achieve a 90% CPU usage on *both* cores (it just gets balanced, so you get something like 60% and 40% load on each core).
That seems to be the problem: Most of the applications use the full juice of a single thread, but don't get to use neither core at 90% (on the hyper-threaded Atoms this seems to be true for almost every CPU load), and the CPU doesn't scale up on these cases.

So the easy workaround is just to lower the threshold below 50%, so that one thread running at 100% is enough to scale up the speed. This is really noticeable on Atoms (600Mhz -> 1200Mhz, twice as fast when it scales up!) and greatly reduces problems with Flash (let's say Youtube) and makes Compiz smoother. The workaround just consists on 3 lines on the "/etc/rc.local" file:

sleep 30 # Wait for the ondemand governor to be fully load
echo 25 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/ondemand/up_threshold
echo 25 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/cpufreq/ondemand/up_threshold

Anyway, I think the problem should be solved either at Ubuntu: The default threshould should be configured to <50%. Even if this reduces a bit the battery life (as I say on Atoms it may be a night and day difference).
Or at the kernel (the cpu governor) level: The governor should take into account the load balancing the kernel seems to be doing between cores. Seems hard for a single threaded app to use the 90% of a single core.

I had this problem, and I eventually fixed it by loading the coretemp kernel module. I think. It might have been a coincidence, or my imagination. Anyway, other people can try this and see if it works.

This bug (may) also be present on the HP Mini 311-1037nr (Intel Atom N270 @ 1.6 GHz) I am using the current updated version of Ubuntu 10.04 LTS. I seem to have problems setting the CPU Frequency scaling with the "CPU Frequency Scaling Monitor" on the panel. It lists: 800 MHz, 1.07 GHz, 1.33 GHz, 1.60 GHz. I have tried many times to set it to 1.60 GHz, but it will only stay at 800 MHz. There is a considerable speed DECREASE when using Ubuntu vs. Windows 7. I hate windows, so I find it hard to just switch to crap, so I have been trying my hardest to fix this problem. I am sorry if I wasn't supposed to comment on here since the bug has "expired", but I am desperate for a fix.

Steve Lacy, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better. Jaunty reached EOL on October 23, 2010.
Please see this document for currently supported Ubuntu releases:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases

We were wondering if this is still an issue in a supported release? If so, can you try with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO CD images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/ .

If it remains an issue, could you run the following command in a supported release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal). It will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report.

apport-collect -p linux <replace-with-bug-number>

Also, if you could test the latest upstream kernel available that would be great. It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs-upstream-testing' tag. This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the 'needs-upstream-testing' text.

If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tag 'kernel-fixed-upstream'.

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the tag: 'kernel-bug-exists-upstream'.

If you are unable to test the mainline kernel, for example it will not boot, please add the tag: 'kernel-unable-to-test-upstream'.

Please let us know your results. Thanks in advance.
