Hi,
I had almost the same problems with my asus laptop. I had to compile a newer
kernel (2.6.20) to make it work correctly. Apart from processor speed, I
noticed that the 2.6.20 is the first kernel with an option Core 2 duo which
recognizes the processor correctly.
Anyway, I never managed to make the processor speed down with cpufreq; I had
to use powersave and powersaved (works perfectly by the way).
So, my suggestion is:
- Compile a newer kernel from kernel.org
- Set the core 2 duo option and all speedstep options to modules
(acpi_cpufreq etc.)
- Especially the governor has to be set to ondemand
- Update your /etc/modules
- Install powersave and powersaved
That should do it;
Hope it helps
Regards
Alex
