I seem to remember a loader command to update the cache, can anyone remind me what it is?NB: I have an Intel Core2 Duo E7300 CPU, and would like to underclock/undervolt it to https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=96987 get some power savings, as I am running at less than 20% cpu most of the time, even with 720p content. I thought I would do the frequency stuff in the OS and do the undervoltage stuff in the BIOS (unless someone can tell how to undervoltage in the OS).Thanks.

The acpi-cpufreq module offers voltage scaling in addition of frequency scaling. You should use that instead of p4-clockmod, if possible.I had been following that link ..Thanks,B Last edited by bmentink (2010-05-12 02:07:09) Offline #4 2010-05-12 04:07:59 bment
