Comment 36 for bug 36014

I understand that you are fishing for resolution by acpi updates, but I would like to point out that my /proc/acpi/processor/CPU0/throttling lists

state count: 8
active state: T0
states:
   *T0: 00%
    T1: 12%
    T2: 25%
    T3: 37%
    T4: 50%
    T5: 62%
    T6: 75%
    T7: 87%

But still:

sune@tommelise:~$ sudo /etc/init.d/powernowd restart
Password:
 * Stopping powernowd: [ ok ]
 * Starting powernowd... /etc/init.d/powernowd: line 83: /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor: No such file or directory
 * CPU frequency scaling not supported
                                                                         [ ok ]
sune@tommelise:~$

And

sune@tommelise:~$ sudo modprobe speedstep-centrino
FATAL: Error inserting speedstep_centrino (/lib/modules/2.6.17.11-ubuntu1-pentium4m-7/kernel/arch/i386/kernel/cpu/cpufreq/speedstep-centrino.ko): No such devicesune@tommelise:~$
