Package: linux-2.6
Severity: wishlist

Please, include p4-clockmod in the linux-image kernels provided by
Debian. Otherwise, some people may not have any kind of frequency
control.

In my particular case, I use a Pentium D 805 (with arch amd64), which does
not work with acpi-cpufreq, but only with p4-clockmod. This should, in
principle, be only a matter of setting it to be compiled, say, as a module:

,----
| rbrito@chagas:/tmp$ grep P4_CLOCKMOD /boot/config-2.6.37-trunk-amd64 
| # CONFIG_X86_P4_CLOCKMOD is not set
| rbrito@chagas:/tmp$ 
`----


Thanks, Rogério Brito.

Sorry, no.  It's not useful for dynamic CPU frequency scaling and is
strongly deprecated.
