5 help
6 CPU Frequency scaling allows you to change the clock speed of
7 CPUs on the fly. This is a nice method to save power, because
8 the lower the CPU clock speed, the less power the CPU consumes.
9
10 Note that this driver doesn't automatically change the CPU
11 clock speed, you need to either enable a dynamic cpufreq governor
12 (see below) after boot, or use a userspace tool.
