Subject: [PATCH] powernow-k8: depend on acpi-processor for SMP systems
Date: Thu, 17 May 2007 00:50:50 +0100 (BST) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070516235050.9B4237B409F@zog.reactivated.net> (raw)
powernow-k8 uses PSB BIOS tables to read frequency info on UP systems, but
on SMP it requires the acpi-processor driver. Kconfig should be updated
accordingly to avoid the issues that users are running into.
