Bug Description
Binary package hint: linux-image-generic
I have upgraded from Edgy to Feisty on a laptop HP Compaq nw8440 and noticed that the kernel module speedstep-centrino was not loaded.
AFAIK, this kernel module should be detected by the /usr/share/
The laptop has processor Intel Centrino Duo. From /proc/cpuinfo
processor : 1
vendor_id : GenuineIntel
cpu family : 6
model : 15
model name : Intel(R) Core(TM)2 CPU T7200 @ 2.00GHz
stepping : 6
cpu MHz : 1000.000
I have queried installed files on my laptop and packages.

I think I read somewhere that speedstep-centrino is now deprecated with the kernel version 2.6.20.
acpi_cpufreq now replaces speedstep-centrino
