That goes for 2.6.8, but support has been added for Dothan as well.

That seems to load, but after enabling cpudynd, I can't seem to
determine wether or not it's actually doing something.
/proc/cpuinfo still says 1500'ish MHz
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_cur_freq says 600MHz
I'd prefer to get the speedstep-centrino working (as it should) :)

The 'unofficial patch' mentioned there looks remarkably familiar
compared to the 2.6.11 speedstep-centrino source :)
(And no, that didn't work either)
The 2.6.12.1 source supports Banias, Dothan and MP4HT. So why won't it
work now?
