Hello, What ids the current way to control cpu speed (and power consumption) in FreeBSD 6-stable? Before, est was one way, but all traces of est has disappeared from /etc/defaults/rc.conf and thereabouts. I find something about powerd and power_profile, but they don't seem to work, and I can't seem to find out what variables / configuration items to set. 'man cpufreq' isn't much help in that regard either. Do I need working acpi to use a power control method? -- Regards, Torfinn Ingolfsen, Norway
