hy, I have a problem with the intel speedstep things. Hardware: IBM Thinkpad R40 2722-GDG/D Kernel: 2.6.0-test8-bk1 If I boot it with ac enable cat /proc/cpufreq shows as maximum cpu frequency the whole 1499 Mhz. If I boot with ac disable cat /proc/cpufreq shows as maximum cpu frequency 599790 khz (100%). So the cpu will be max in 599 Mhz if the thinkpad was bootet from battery.
