Be prepared, long post of kernel-power-settings which is driving me crazy. Really kernel-power settings is gone nuts.

In this post I describe exactly what steps I took to get this result, and it's reproducable 10/10.

I already thought kernel power-settings was acting weird on me so I ran:

Code:
apt-get remove --purge kernel-power-settings
rm -r /home/user/.kernel
That last command was to be sure there were no bits left of my personal config files.

This part describes why I am posting this...
After removing kernel-power-settings, I installed kernel-power-settings again by issuing
Code:
sudo gainroot
apt-get install kernel-power-settings
Followed by loading the default config


I thought these voltages were quite weird, and yet it becomse even weirder, here the voodoo kicks in, when I recheck the config I just loaded with nano





WTF , other values in the config file than kernel-config show reports... Especially freq 500 and 600 are weird


I did not set any profile as default so why don't we reboot and let it load the original "nokia" config? Easy said easy done:



Then load the default profile and check again. Seems quite normal, except still that voltage voodoo bug ( 550 and 600)

Let's make the default profile default so it loads at boot


Reboot...
Checking again

Voltages seems normal atleast they are linear increased with frequency increasement, not the weird jumps as when loading it. Though it still makes me wonder where the vuck do these values come from as they are definitely not in the config file(see screenshot 2, the one opened in nano)
