Package: linux-image-2.6.18-3-k7
Version: 2.6.18-8
Severity: normal

Hi,
i'm getting an error while trying to load module powernow_k7:
#modprobe powernow_k7
 FATAL: Error inserting powernow_k7 
(/lib/modules/2.6.18-3-k7/kernel/arch/i386/kernel/cpu/cpufreq/powernow-k7.ko): 
No such device
On the same machine it works with a debian 2.6.15 kernel.
I'm putting here some additional output, hoping it can be useful.

Part of cpuid output: 
[..8<..]
Processor name string: AMD Athlon(TM) XP2200+
[..8<..]
Advanced Power Management Feature Flags
Has temperature sensing diode
Maximum linear address: 32; maximum phys address 34
