Hi Release Team,
I'm wondering if it's worth updating cpufrequtils in Squeeze to the
current version in testing/unstable.
There are a couple of fixes that are worth considering in there and
namely: fixing support for linux 3.0 (some modules have been moved
and broke assumptions in cpufrequtils init scripts) and support for AMD
family 20 CPUs.
There are extra harmless changes, if necessary I can uppload to spu a
new package that only contains the two fixes above.
The diff since Squeeze is:
