I have a Pentium D 3.00GHz. I tried compiling my kernel with the coretemp module but this won't modprobe (which, I imagine, is because the module is exclusively for Core chips). Also, I have CPU frequency scaling set up (using the ACPI Processor P-States driver). I have a minimum frequency of 2400000 and a maximum frequency of 3000000 - both of these were present by default. My PC correctly switches between the lower and upper frequencies depending on how busy the machine is (using the ondemand governor) but I would like to know whether there should be any lower frequencies in the 'scaling_available_frequencies' file; 2.4GHz seems a little high as a minimum frequency. Thank you in advance, Richard
