Hi Adnan,

I've installed and configured auto-cpufreq via Snap. Although I've seem to run into the issue that the CPU actually isn't scaling down to my set freq in the config file (see debug output). Any tips on how I can remedy this?

I didn't actually switch to acpi-cpufreq, I'll show myself out.

Thanks for the great tool!

In case someone else is having the same problem, how to change to acpi-cpufreq is mentioned in https://github.com/AdnanHodzic/auto-cpufreq/#troubleshooting
