@bubba FYI, The update function in .12 didn't do anything for me. I had to download .13 manually. Sidenote: After upgrading to .13 I got a "boot error" when starting my system. I disabled bubbaRAID and still got a "boot error". I rolled back to basic unRAID and it booted fine. I'm not sure what happened. I will try a clean install of .13 and see what happens.

When viewing a thread, if I use the search at the top it only seems to search that thread. To search the entire forum I have to be at the root of the forum.

I've already been clicking that since .10 I assume anything custom work in files such as rc.bubba will get replaced.

Just slimserver. s2ram and poweroff will be soon. Dang...I was just getting ready to test for s2RAM. BTW if I do not want to start nzbget and rtorrent on startup is it best to comment them out of the rc.bubba file?

ahh okay. I was reading back thru the thread and thought it was put in long ago. No problem. I am testing my go script with the added modprobes now.

I did re run it then just entered the modprobe items above and it worked. When I ran "sensors" after that I got: VCore 1: +1.50 V (min = +0.00 V, max = +4.08 V) VCore 2: +1.49 V (min = +0.00 V, max = +4.08 V) +3.3V: +3.44 V (min = +0.00 V, max = +4.08 V) +5V: +5.13 V (min = +0.00 V, max = +6.85 V) +12V: +12.10 V (min = +0.00 V, max = +16.32 V) -12V: -20.49 V (min = -27.36 V, max = +3.93 V) -5V: -1.72 V (min = -13.64 V, max = +4.03 V) Stdby: +4.41 V (min = +0.00 V, max = +6.85 V) VBat: +3.26 V fan1: 2163 RPM (min = 0 RPM, div = 16) fan2: 0 RPM (min = 0 RPM, div = 16) fan3: 5818 RPM (min = 0 RPM, div = M/B Temp: +31.0 C (low = -1.0 C, high = +127.0 C) sensor = transistor CPU Temp: +25.0 C (low = -1.0 C, high = +127.0 C) sensor = thermal diode Temp3: +40.0 C (low = -1.0 C, high = +127.0 C) sensor = transistor cpu0_vid: +1.525 V This is very cool. Thank you. Now, Ill go and figure out how to get it all in a go script and such so that it all happens on startup, and figure out how to get my s2RAM working. When I run "s2ram" I just get command not found. Anyhow, finally my unRAID box can use less power and make less noise! Thanks for the help.

I thought that might be the case. I new to linux, I am trying to read and learn. I think it87 is exactly what the output said. I'll give that a go. Thanks for all the help.

I rebooted and the modprobe had to be done again. Once I did that and redid the sensor scan I looked for the files/directories you listed. I have /etc/sysconfig/lm_sensors , but I do not have a /etc/init.d/ directory.

Great. Thanks for the info. I'll try those things, as of right now I don't see my CPU temp anywhere. So I typed "sensors-detect" then ran thru all the scanning just saying yes to all and ended up with: Now follows a summary of the probes I have just done. Just press ENTER to continue: Driver `it87' (should be inserted): Detects correctly: * Bus `SMBus I801 adapter at 0500' Busdriver `i2c-i801', I2C address 0x2d Chip `ITE IT8712F' (confidence: * ISA bus, address 0x290 Chip `ITE IT8712F Super IO Sensors' (confidence: 9) Do you want to generate /etc/sysconfig/lm_sensors? (yes/NO): yes Copy prog/init/lm_sensors.init to /etc/init.d/lm_sensors for initialization at boot time. You should now start the lm_sensors service to load the required kernel modules. Then I typed "service lm_sensors start", but got a command not found error. Do I have to restart to get the lm_sensor going? When I "cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_available_governors", the reponse I got was: ondemand performance

I got BubbaRAID installed. I did "acpitool -c" and got similar results as NLS. Then I did "modprobe p4_clockmod" and now my results look like this: CPU type : Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 2.40GHz Min/Max frequency : 300/2400 MHz Current frequency : 300 MHz Frequency governor : ondemand Freq. scaling driver : p4-clockmod Cache size : 512 KB Bogomips : 4810.89 Bogomips : 4811.09 # of CPU's found : 2 Processor ID : 0 Bus mastering control : no Power management : no Throttling control : no Limit interface : no Active C-state : C0 C-states (incl. C0) : 1 Processor ID : 1 Bus mastering control : no Power management : no Throttling control : no Limit interface : no Active C-state : C0 C-states (incl. C0) : 1 It looks like it's actually running at 300mhz now, is that correct? Does this mean the modprobe worked? Will it stay after rebooting? My fans are still running at full speed. In the BIOS it is set to speed up and slow down based on CPU temp, does this setting not get used in linux?

Woot! And I thought play time for the weekend was over....

Tried it. Did nothing. Doesn't matter now anyhow as that is the cpu I am using for my unRAID system. I'm patiently waiting for bubbaRAID .9 for a new install to release. Then I'll experiment with the settings you mentioned and S3. I may go back to unRAID 4.3.3 and install bubbaRAID .7 and go thru the upgrade process.

Well great! I was hoping that may be the case. I couldn't do anything in windows to throttle it.

That doesn't make sense. All Pentiums have speed/throttling adjustment. That's how they use thermal protection. What exact CPU are you talking about? Now some don't use the old "speedstep" driver and instead use "p4_clockmod" I don't know about in linux, all I know is my P4 in windows will not throttle. It runs at full clock all the time. Checking with a tool like cpu-z showed no speed stepping enabled on the CPU.

Does that CPU actually support speed stepping? I have a similar P4, which unfortunately Intel didn't give the ability to speedstep.

Does the Telnet scripting tool work with x64? I keep getting errors when trying to run it. I double click the shortcut and I get a popup explaining usage. If I press the close button, an error pops up "Abnormal termination". I couldn't get the scripting tool to work, so I found a vb script and adopted it to work.

Unfortunatey I only have the one system. I guess I can get a different USB stick and experiment with that stick. I doubt any of the tweaking for s2RAM will hose my data, but I'm going to do more reading first to make sure.

I checked the whitelist for version "suspend-0.8". My current RAID setup (Shuttle XPC SB61G2) is not in the list. When bubbaRAID for 4.4 drops, I guess I just need to try and see what happens. If it doesn't work, then I need figure out how to do what that website says. I guess the time to learn some linux is at hand.

Can someone explain this a little more. How are we on our for making it work? I know how to enable it in my BIOS, but is there some sort of linux kernel finagling I need to do?

Not sure, but I had a tough time finding it in the pro version. At first I thought it was missing too. On the "main" page, click on the "disk" name. It is now a link to a page with the setting of the individual timeout for that drive. ahhh yup, there it is, thanks.

Is per-disk spindown only in the registered pro version? I just updated and I don't see it in the basic version.

Is there am explanation of NFS somewhere and why I should care or think about using it instead of SAMBA? I'm just trying to learn more

My mobo supports S1 and S3, what the difference between S3 and s2ram. Isn't S3 suspend to RAM? And in other posts it mentions BubbaRaid has that support but you are on "your own" to try it. Does this mean if you know how to setup the mobo you are ok, or is there more linux tweaking that needs to happen?

I wish I had enough Linux experience to give any intelligent thoughts. I'll have to just sit by and wait for something to release that I can play with. I understand the work behind the scenes and I can patiently wait for what you think is best.

That'd be nice. Can you also include a brief "how to"?
