I'm testing my net6501-70 boxes right now with Vyatta Linux
(2.6.37-1-586-vyatta)

The cpufreq modules don't seem to be loading properly.  This is likely
because it can't find the ACPI table from the BIOS to setup the
correct modes for the Atom E680.  I tried loading some of the modules
manually, but they don't seem to work.

The CPU runs at about 115F which isn't too bad, but it would be nice
if speestep worked.  Has anyone had any luck with this?  Maybe it's
possible to load the required tables from userspace.
