I have a Compaq Evo N1050v laptop with a combination of ALi and ATI bridges. It has an Intel Pentium 4-M 1.8GHz I'm not sure which is which, but here is an lspci : 00:00.0 Host bridge: ATI Technologies Inc: Unknown device cab2 (rev 02) 00:01.0 PCI bridge: ATI Technologies Inc: Unknown device 7010 00:02.0 USB Controller: ALi Corporation USB 1.1 Controller (rev 03) 00:06.0 Multimedia audio controller: ALi Corporation M5451 PCI AC-Link Controller Audio Device (rev 02) 00:07.0 ISA bridge: ALi Corporation M1533 PCI to ISA Bridge [Aladdin IV] 00:08.0 Modem: ALi Corporation Intel 537 [M5457 AC-Link Modem] 00:0a.0 CardBus bridge: O2 Micro, Inc.

I've also tried the 2.5.65 kernel release. The above was from a 2.4.21-0.13mdk kernel. The ATI bridge itself is not supported, as I gathered, so maybe that's why and maybe I should rather address this email to a different development group instead of cpufreq. I'd gladly provide more verbose info if wanted. Regards, G. Tselentis
