Package: linux-image-2.6.16-1-686
Version: 2.6.16-5
Severity: normal

Hi. After upgrading to a 2.6.16 kernel the module p4-clockmod doesn't
work anymore: 

# modprobe p4-clockmod
FATAL: Error inserting p4_clockmod
(/lib/modules/2.6.16-1-686/kernel/arch/i386/kernel/cpu/cpufreq/p4-clockmod.ko):
No such device

That was working perfectly under 2.6.15.

Regards,
Giuseppe D'Angelo

I'm closing this bug:


------- Additional Comment #6 From Dave Jones 2006-07-28 20:01 -------

The lower frequencies were removed in later kernels as part of an errata
workaround. It's possible that using them on affected CPUs can cause lockups. 

So it's not a kernel bug, and I don't believe that upstream will fix this.

Thank you very much for your support, however.

Cheers,
