Thats quite better but yes, it's not the lowest one, too.
Maybe you should start from a Live-CD just to see if the temperature is lower then (so you can see if some system setting is not correct or a task is loading the CPU too much...)
you can also try intels "powertop" utility so set up some tweaks to reduce the CPU usage (among other things).
Guys, I think we should start a new thread about "how to lower system usage during idle times" or something,

Re: Installation Guide
Hi there,
i can't get the modded acpi-cpufreq module to work.
I compiled without errors, including command 300.
Both commands 303 and 304 returned nothing!
Then i tried to load the modded module an this happened:
The same error msg with insmod:
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance!

Re: Installation Guide
Hi PowerPaul86,
i had the same problem. Did you get a message like:
"WARNING: Symbol version dump /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.27/Module.symvers
is missing; modules will have no dependencies and modversions."
during compiling? If so, maybe this will help you:
After this just copy the compiled module as before and try again with modprobe or insmod.

Re: Installation Guide
Wohoo,
thank you very much, nixgmx!
It worked, finally
Maybe a hint on the first page would be nice

Re: Installation Guide
Thanks. Didn't know that this will help. I'll add this to the first page.

Re: Installation Guide
Is it possible to have a dkms compilation also for intel stable?

Re: Installation Guide
It is possible
Yet it is easier for me to make those offtree-packages but I will keep your wish in mind.
Maybe someone volunteer to maintain intel dkms packages?

Re: Installation Guide
i thought it was just a matter of binding module compilation to dkms, so it will be automatic at each kernel update and doesn't require any additional effort (unless the module il not working with the new kernel because functions are changed).
and i thought since it has been done for amd, shouldn't be a big issue to do exactly the same for intel.
i hope you find some collaboration, maybe also to finish intel 0.4 tests
i would offer my help, but right now i am pretty busy changing job.
