Power management on Pentium 4 M & Celeron M CPUs

Enabling the module

Insert the p4_clockmod module:

sudo modprobe p4_clockmod

This shouldn't return any output.

Setting it to start at boot

Add the line

p4_clockmod

to /etc/modules to ensure the CPU clock scaling module starts with the system.

Adding the CPU frequency scaling monitor applet to the panel (right click 'add to panel') will show CPU frequency now. Reboot the PC if it doesn't seem to be working immediately.

Changing CPU frequency manually

sudo cpufreq-selector -f 1000000
