SpeedStep GUI

tuxx · June 18, 2007

Hi guys,

i've been working on this cpu throttle GUI since two days now and I feel it has reached a stage where I can release a binary version to the public for testing. I appreciate all the feedback I can get and am open to improvement suggestions.

This App requires ACPICPUThrottle.kext to be loaded...

Please dont ask for me to release code just yet. I may at some point release the source but for now I prefer it closed.

Installation:

load the ACPICPUThrottle.kext

make sure no other Steppers are running such as CPUThrottleCtrl, DCPUManager, etc...

start the application and enter your password (requires suid).

Known Issues:

Preferences window is a "dummy" so far.. I am working on the preferences these days and will report back when i have it functioning

Preference Sliders work but the buttons are still not functioning.

works fine... can't set 'status bar icon' in preferences. Could you explain what min and max treshhold is?

As desribed above the preferences window is a dummy and not working yet. I will explain min and max threshold once i get them working :tomato:

I hope this app reaches some popularity! I really think its the nicest most straightforward and lightweight gui for speedstepping available at this time. so SPREAD THE word :thumbsup_anim:

if I start you APP nothing shows up.

if i start it in Console I get:

SpeedStep[304] Could not connect the action openPreferencesWindow: to target of class MainController

What have I done wrong? please help me.

to start it without password entry do the following:

sudo chown -R 0:0 SpeedStep.app

sudo chmod +s SpeedStep.app/Contents/MacOS/SpeedStep

then it should start with suid and not require a password entry...

what are the dependencies except having the kext loaded?

Its a fresh OS X install - maybe thats the problem?!

does it need X11 or java or something?!

Thanks for creating a new application!

I don't like running closed software as SUID in general. I don't have Speedstep under JaS 10.4.8 with this kernel, so I can't test your app. Thanks though.

do you have the kext loaded?

also try the lastest version (build from last night) should be a lot more stable than the previous version... available at my website:

Very nice app you have done. I'll test it until I've reinstalled my ACPICPUThrottle.kext. Well, one month ago I tested this kext with DCPU Manager. But it slowed my CPU clock down even if I played games etc.

What is the difference in your program with the DCPU Manager?

//Edit: Well, I testet your program. Its just the same wie the DCPU Manager. It slows the clock too fast down. But you programm is still in early developments, maybe I've just to wait some more time.

whats the difference? its a whole different program.. I really didnt like dcpu manager or any other stepping guis so i decided to write my own.

Well this app allows you to set a custom speed (like when you are playing games) so you wont have to worry about it stepping down or such. Or you can adjust the thresholds so that it will step more agressively.

Stony · June 25, 2007

Well, currently I can't see any option to adjust the thresholds (I thing you are still develping them). And could you explain what min and max treshhold are?

yyann · June 25, 2007

How i can make autostar your app in each login system?

mujahid7ia · June 25, 2007

Oops, I didn't have the kext loaded. Actually, it's not on my system. Where can I find it?

Read this post: http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?s=&...st&p=390429

Stony · June 25, 2007

Now I know whats my problem:

I've the slowmotion bug (any frequency under normal causes the system to run at slowmotion instead of just lowering the performance).

Is there any way to fix it?

quasar_x · July 7, 2007

hey everyone,

heres an update on the speedstepper.. i managed to implement support for the min/max threshhold...

wld be greatful if some ppl could try out this app for me..

The min/max threshold seem to work for me. Still have to figure out the optimal settings though.

Unfortunately, the settings are not saved, so I have to readjust them on every boot. Is there any chance you will implement this in the future?

I prefer using Speedstep GUI instead of DCPU, because it displays the correct CPU frequencies (800-1733, not 1033-2166).

So thanks for this app and keep up the good work!

quasar_x · July 10, 2007

*bump*

(hoping that tuxxx reads my post)

ViennaL · July 10, 2007

I like it too but it would be nice if there is a setting that handles like the linux kernel governors do.

In Linux there is speedstep governor called "on demand" that takes care of thresholds and so on. but its not really threshold based i think ...

its really damn fast on switching cpu freqs so i would like to see that under os x .. even if I set the thresholds to something like 95% and the other value very close it is not fast switching in my opinion.

quasar_x · July 10, 2007

Did you reduce the "CPU load interval"? As I understand, this should speed up switching.

Btw, do you have the same problems, i.e. no threshold settings are saved and when you launch SpeedStep GUI via Startup, it doesn't show the CPU frequencies for "Custom Clock"?

ViennaL · July 10, 2007

i think i have the same problems.

And YES i changed the update intervall ... but even 500 ms or what the lowest value is - its just to slow to kick in right in time!

I only have a Centrino with SSE2 ... my dashboard and expose is slow at 800 mhz but at 1733 mhz is very nice. dashboard starts faster than the speedsteping reacts so it pops up with 800 mhz (at lease the first 500 ms)

Same CPU-speeds here (800Mhz-1.73Ghz). I agree, speedstep reacts too slow with the standard setting of 500ms and you can easily spot a slight kind of stuttering when the dashboard pops up.

It gets a bit better at 0.1 load interval, but I don't really feel like changing the values on each boot. Another solution would be to permanently set the minimum frequency to 1333Mhz. I tried to mess around with these system variables, but I couldnt write to them (although I was logged in as root). See here and tell me if you have more luck.

The tool just needs a few smaller fixes to be perfect, in any case I still prefer it instead of DCPU tool.
