In grub2 some things (like default kernel options) are done in /etc/default/grub, so you have to edit this file: sudo pico /etc/default/grub search for a line GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="" and change to (or add if it doesn't exist): GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="processor.max_cstate=2" press STRG+x and y to save and exit and execute the grub update: sudo update-grub that will rewrite your actual grub configuration with the new kernel option. This method will affect all kernels in /boot. Works for me on Fuckb...srz...Macbook 2,1 under Karmic. Greets, markus. Hi,

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=”processor.max_cstate=2″

press STRG+x and y to save and exit and execute the grub update:

sudo update-grub

that will rewrite your actual grub configuration with the new kernel option. This method will affect all kernels in /boot. Works for me on Fuckb…srz…Macbook 2,1 under Karmic.

However, if you add 'processor.max_cstate=2' to the kernel line in /boot/grub/menu.lst you can set you max_cstate and thus prevent the annoying whine. In Jaunty the method no longer works.
