[Bug 13486] New: Having CPU switch frequency dynamically (powersave daemon) , Prince of Persia (potentially more apps?) runs way too fast
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13486 Summary: Having CPU switch frequency dynamically (powersave daemon), Prince of Persia (potentially more apps?) runs way too fast Product: Wine Version: 1.0-rc2 Platform: PC-x86-64 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: Nico.Laus.2001(a)gmx.de I normally let my CPU change frequencies dynamically as required by the current load. Starting Prince of Persia The Sands of Time, this game runs too fast. When I change CPU frequency policy in powersaved to performance, everything runs fine. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

On Windows, is your cpu also running at a lower frequency?
yes, power saving is active and adjusting core speed continuously (between 1000 and 2400 MHz) -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

(Leaving to dynamic sometimes shows correct timings - this is a save way to reproduce it, although I have not tested a similar behaviour on Windows) I'm guessing it depends on the difference of frequency when the game (application) started and the in-game cpu frequency. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

Seems that the game has problems with c'n'q and/or multi core machines. However, I wasn't able to reproduce the same error in Windows.

When the ondemand daemon is running, the game runs far too fast. Stopping the daemon with 'sudo /etc/init.d/ondemand stop' before running the game allows it to run at the correct speed (and making the game playable). -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

Same Problem like comment #9 im DeusEx 1 (wine 1.2 rc 6)
Maybe it´s not an wine Bug.
then why does it work on Windows (same machine?) - although cnq driver workaround mentioned in Comment #11 seem reasonable...
There is a workaround in the DeusEx howto. I hope in some day there is an switch to disable the dynamic clock speed while playing.
this might not be the desired behaviour - imagine old games not using all the power modern machines got - they don't need to waste energy then... I'll however test with the newest wine version soon - also with the program attached to a single CPU core... -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.
