           Summary: acpi-cpufreq not working anymore

Most recent kernel where this bug did not occur: 2.6.15-mm1 and 2.6.15
Distribution: Debian testing
Hardware Environment: IBM Thinkpad T43

I reported on January 7th that acpi-cpufreq did not work anymore on my IBM
Thinkpad T43 (fails to load with ENODEV). The problem appeared first in
2.6.15-mm2 and has been reported in the following thread on LKML:
http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/1/7/181

The issue has been discussed a little bit with Len Brown and Venkatesh Pallipadi
on linux-acpi, for instance in
  http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-acpi&m=113770495819445&w=2
and in private mails.

Andrew Morton tracked the ENODEV down in this post
  http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=113672322608497&w=2

The last news I heard was that I should use speedstep-centrino since it is not
broken and is actually faster. I now use speedstep-centrino and it works fine.
But Andrew Morton does not like this solution. The acpi-cpufreq driver should
either fixed or removed. That's why I am opening a bug here.
