ResolutionError after installing auto-cpufreq using auto-cpufreq-installer

[PhilippFeO]

Fill out information requested in this template, without doing so issue will be ignored & closed!

Have you tried?

• Searching through existing/closed issues to see if your bug has already been already submitted? I have found #444 but I think it makes more sense to open a new issue to include my output neatly and using your template.
• If installation failed with auto-cpufreq-installer,have you tried installing auto-cpufreq using [Snap package] (https://github.com/AdnanHodzic/auto-cpufreq/#snap-store)? No, because I switched from Ubuntu to Linux Mint to avoid snap.
• Have you tried configuring auto-cpufreq? No, because auto-cpufreq doesn't start in the first place.
• Have you tried suggestions in troubleshooting section? Yes, but no proposals apply for my scenario.

Error output:

I receive the following error message on every option. This one is from auto-cpufreq --help:

Also please be descriptive about the issue you're reporting, i.e: what you tried & what's the expected behaviour.

I tried removing and reinstalling it without success.

Additional information

• I cloned the repository into /opt.
• There is an error message when removing auto-cpufreq, s. Removing auto-cpufreq
• After removing auto-cpufreq, I can't uninstall the python packages (I copied requirements.txt):

  $ pip uninstall -r requirements.txt 
Found existing installation: setuptools 59.6.0
Not uninstalling setuptools at /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages, outside environment /usr
Can't uninstall 'setuptools'. No files were found to uninstall.

I haven't run into this pip behavior yet. It probably is not related to auto-cpufreq but I wanted to mention it.

It's your time you spent for a random guy on the internet, so thank you for reading my long issue!

[rforced]

I'm having the same issue on PopOS 22.04 LTS

[bar-julio]

I'm having the same issue on a fresh Ubuntu install

uname -a

Linux HP-Laptop-17 6.2.0-20-generic #20-Ubuntu SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Thu Apr 6 07:48:48 UTC 2023 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Tried it with the snap package and the git clone install script

After rebooting and doing:

sudo systemctl status auto-cpufreq.service

I get:

Unit auto-cpufreq.service could not be found.

@bar-julio

Tried it with the snap package and the git clone install script

As stated on README, if install was performed as part of snap package daemon status can be verified by running: systemctl status snap.auto-cpufreq.service.service

Closing the issue due to inactivity.

My issue is still open. You responded to bar-julio (s. https://github.com/AdnanHodzic/auto-cpufreq/issues/499#issuecomment-1531945568), not my initial post.

[fourteenminusone]

Same issue here on Debian Testing

[SimpleCookie]

For the record, I have the same issue. I can't even seem to remove it completely. I want to uninstall so I can reinstall it, but the installation seems corrupt.

[AdnanHodzic]

Could you please manually run lines 42, 45, 48 & 51?

After this try re-running sudo ./auto-cpufreq-installer --remove in location where auto-cpufreq is cloned. If same thing happens again please share so I see what happened. Then run sudo rm -rf /opt/auto-cpufreq/ and reboot.

Seems like it works better now. Do I just run the install part now?
