Powerd error when configuring new setting
-
php-fpm 82404 /system_advanced_misc.php: The command '/usr/sbin/powerd -b hadp -a hadp -n hadp' returned exit code '69', the output was 'powerd: no cpufreq(4) support – aborting: No such file or directory'
It gives this error when selecting either the None/ACPI or the Intel Core*.
On bootup it gives this.
php-cgi rc.bootup: The command '/usr/sbin/powerd -b hadp -a hadp -n hadp' returned exit code '69', the output was 'powerd: no cpufreq(4) support -- aborting: No such file or directory'

You have an Intel ATOM CPU that very likely does not support EIST and FreeBSD 11 by default disables the p4tcc and apci_throttle drivers leaving no method for cpufreq driver to control the frequencies.
https://wiki.freebsd.org/TuningPowerConsumption
You can enable the two drivers with these lines in /boot/loader.conf.local but I don't think you'll get any benefits from it, ATOMs are broken when it comes to power and thermal tuning because they don't support EIST:
hint.p4tcc.0.disabled=0 hint.acpi_throttle.0.disabled=0

Thanks.
I followed the instructions in that section, to unload the selected module I selected Non/ACPI and then rebooted.
Same errors. But as long as there aren't issues with this error, all is good.
