Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: linux-source-2.6.22

In the newer 2.6.23 kernel a patch was done to update which family of
processors were supported for powernow-k8. For users of Ubuntu with
newer 64bit processors, when trying to use powernow-k8 they will recieve
a message that their processor is not supported. With this patch from
the newer kernel (see the diffs):

http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=30046e5885848fe5c2c66177dca6b277323e31ab

The family is updated, and those newer cpu's will have powernow-k8 work
properly out of the box. I hope this small patch can be included in
whatever next version of the Ubuntu kernel that's put out.
