Fedora 12 needs root for cpufreq, how to change?

view full story
linux-howto

http://forums.fedoraforum.org – I have F12 on my laptop and F10 on my HTPC. Both run a Athlon 64-class CPU and supports cpufreq. Both have the cpufreq applet running on GNOME and automatically logs in as a normal user. On F10 I can just go ahead and change the CPU frequency; on F12 it asks me for root. The dbus policy for it is identical across both computers, which are below: /etc/dbus-1/system.d/org.gnome.CPUFreqSelector.conf Code: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE busconfig PUBLIC           "-//freedesktop//DTD D-BUS Bus Configuration 1.0//EN"           "http://www.freedesktop.org/standards/dbus/1.0/busconfig.dtd"> <busconfig>   <!-- Only root can own the service -->   <policy user="root">     <allow own="org.gnome.CPUFreqSelector"/>     <allow send_interface="org.gnome.CPUFreqSelector"/>   </policy>   <policy context="default">     <allow send_interface="org.gnome.CPUFreqSelector"/>   </policy> </busconfig> Where else can I change to get the F10 behavior with F12 and not have it ask me for root every time?

undue seg fault 3 years 11 weeks ago

In the following program though most of the working part of the program is commented out, it gives seg fault. reducing the value of MAX to say 10000 removes the seg fault. Why is this happening? it should be only 1 MB only. Is 1 MB too big for an array?

#include <stdio.h>

#define MAX 1000010
