Title: Longhaul problems - how to deactivate?
Post by: YuT666 on July 28, 2014, 04:34:48 PM

Hi,

well, i use CorePlus and this one is amazing. I nearly solved all my "beginner problems" on my own with a few little hints ... i only have one problem now ... this #?)&§ longhaul thing!

I installed CorePlus on a Neoware client and i know, that this machines have some problems with longhaul/cpufreq ... i always get "longhaul not enable" errors or something like that at the bootup.

I found a thread here in this forum with the hint "longhaul.disable=1" ... but where i've to put this line? In the bootlocal.sh file?

Thanks in advance.

Regards

YuT666

Hi YuT666
It goes in the config file for your bootloader.

Hi YuT666
I just looked through the source code for longhorn. The parameter is  enable , not  disable. Try:

Code: [Select]

longhaul.enable=0and see if that works.

Hi YuT666

Longhaul: Option "enable" not set. Aborting

That's not really an error, from the source code found here:
http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/drivers/cpufreq/longhaul.c?v=3.8#L968
is the following code:

Code: [Select]

968         if (!enable) {
969                 printk(KERN_ERR PFX "Option \"enable\" not set. Aborting.\n");
970                 return -ENODEV;
971         }If enable is set to zero, that message is printed and longhaul is disabled.
