Re-enabling Ondemand cpu frequency scaling

Question

I ran

sudo update-rc.d ondemand disable

to disable on-demand cpu frequency scaling.

Can it be re-enabled again running

sudo update-rc.d ondemand enable

os: ubuntu 14.04 lts.

Maybe you should try it and see? – psusi Apr 26 '16 at 02:29 — psusi, Apr 26 '16 at 02:29

You can adjust CPU frequency with indicator-cpufreq available in the software center. See below. I've never tried your method.

Works pretty well for me on 14.04. – axel22 Feb 19 '17 at 18:48

@axel22 I use it on 16.04 as well. I've found it useful for down-clocking my system during periods of heavy load accompanied by unseasonably warm weather. Normally I leave it set on OnDemand, but sometimes conditions warrant setting it at a specific clock rate. – Elder Geek Feb 20 '17 at 12:06
