I *think* what has to happen is we need to push out the new cpuspeed that is in SL 5.3 to everyone

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=459441
http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHEA-2009-0098.html

Basically, it looks like what happened was the powernow-k8 changes from being built into the kernel to a kernel module. And the cpuspeed needed to be changed to understand this.

Can someone test this out and see if it works for them.

i386:

x86_64:

Dear Troy,

unfortunately kernel 2.6.18-128.1.1.el5 does not support cpu frequency scaling on AMD64 cpus. We were using this feature on all of our machines with the previous kernels. Any solution to this problem?
