TLP, CPU Frequency stuck at 800Mhz, Fedora, ASUS K53E
by TheJooomes from LinuxQuestions.org on (#4YGZA)
When I installed TLP everything seemed to work fine for a few days. But then I resumed my laptop and everything was extremely slow. I managed to temporarily fix it a few times by messing around with the gnome frequency extension and disabling TLP, but that stopped working after a few times. I really like TLP since it added an extra 2 hours to my average battery life, so getting rid of it would be a major step backwards. I've been messing around with the config file (/etc/default/tlp), each time it works for a while, but then after a while suspended it locks at 800Mhz again. Today during class I resumed and found everything to be really slow, good enough for google docs, but really annoying. Since then I couldn't get it to go back to normal with any amount of messing around. That gnome extension won't do a thing to change it.
I looked at everything in the config file relating to CPU, I even commented out everything about CPU management, still stuck at 800Mhz. Here's my config file: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/JDFMBsZ3C2/
My laptop:
Fedora 31, ASUS K53E, i3 2310m
There are no settings in the BIOS for controlling the CPU.
