Hello
After upgrading to 2.6.3 from 2.6.2 with the same .config there are no files anymore in /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/. With 2.6.2 i have
| Code: |
himbeere@irmeli himbeere $ ls -l /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/
total 0
-r--r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Feb 18 2004 cpuinfo_max_freq
-r--r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Feb 18 2004 cpuinfo_min_freq
-r--r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Feb 18 2004 scaling_available_governors
-r--r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Feb 18 2004 scaling_driver

The same here. Just happy to get cool'n'quiet working on my MSI Board with the beta bios and now did the kernel break things.
There are a few items in the kernel changelog about powernow-k8. |

What does dmesg say? (maybe something like "lost synchronization, throwing 2 bytes away"; take a look at Linux: 2.6 Input Drivers FAQ)

They tried to overdo the sanity checks
I'll fix it for gentoo-dev-sources-2.6.3-r2
Is yours similar to this:
powernow-k8: Found AMD64 processor supporting PowerNow (version 1.00.08a)
powernow-k8: voltage stable in 100 usec, ramp voltage offset: 2,
isochronous relief time: 3, maximum voltage step: 0
powernow-k8: pll lock time: 0x2, <4>powernow-k8: BIOS error: max voltage
vid listed as 0x00, should be at least 0x02. Using current speed.
maxfid 0xc (2000 MHz), maxvid 0x2
powernow-k8: fid 0 invalid : 0x0
