[Bug 344252] Re: CPU Frequency Scaling defaults to "Performance" instead of "OnDemand"

Same problem here!

In fact, the lack of useful powersave settings in Ubuntu (but Linux-
based laptops/desktops in general) is annoying me even since I started
to use Linux in non-server environments regularly.

When will there be a proper setting in ubuntu (or more generic in the
designated config tools or a config file) where the user can just select
a cpufreq governor him-/herself?

Also the ability to distinguish between "when on AC power"  and " when
on battery"  could be a great one. Because I would like to have my
laptop on "ondemand" during normal work (so the fan will keep itself
quiet) and "conservative" on battery. Also when using a HTPC or other
systems that are turned on the whole day, these settings could be
useful.

But to confirm the problem: On my 2 Jaunty systems at home, the governor
is also "performance"  always.
