[gentoo-user] Cannot get Powernow/frequency scaling to work

[gentoo-user] Cannot get Powernow/frequency scaling to work

[Jamie]

I have recompiled my kernel as per the Powernow HOWTO at
www.gentoo-wiki.com but cannot seem to get any Powernow or frequency
scaling support.
A dmesg | grep powernow returns nothing , it is enabled in the BIOS of the
machine and works under Windows but will not work in Gentoo.
I am running the an Athlon 64 3200+ but running the x86 version of Gentoo
so that I can run the software I require that is not well supported under
x64.

Any ideas apprecaited.

Thanks

Jame

Did you load the modules? That's not mentioned in the howto.

modprobe powernow_k8
