config.txt settings for basic 700Mhz

[simplesi]

Trying to do some basic trouble shooting and wondering what should I have in config.txt to get my RPi back to to be simply running at a original 700MHz

(confused as to whether I need to mention turbo mode as my RPi keeps on telling me when I hover over the CPU icon that I'm on demand!)

Didn't you run raspi-config and tell it to turn off Turbo mode? The file itself says to uncomment the arm frequency line only if you want to run faster, so just comment it and the
other lines hown here to get back to default.

#uncomment to overclock the arm. 700 MHz is the default.
#arm_freq=1000

# for more options see http://elinux.org/RPi_config.txt
#core_freq=500
#sdram_freq=600
#over_voltage=6

Hi
Are you running yours with those settings?
Does your RPi still say Govenor:ondemand if you hover over the tray icon?
(Mine doesn't seem to jump up when I put load on the CPU but It still doesn't inspire 100% confidence that I'm running plain 700Mhz )

PS My settings are (set by raspi-config apart from I've added to force-turbo=1 as I understand that its set to 0 (eg. enabled) by default)

Code: Select all

#uncomment to overclock the arm. 700 MHz is the default.
arm_freq=700

# for more options see http://elinux.org/RPi_config.txt
core_freq=250
sdram_freq=400
over_voltage=0

#switch turbo off
force_turbo=1
