Okay, I'm going to jump and finally Reject this one---based on the fact that it's a hardware limitation.
Nico: Yeah, because this is such a corner case, it's going to be a little hard. Yes, it's possible to match machines based on the 'DMI' data (use 'dmidecode' or look in /var/cache/acpi-support/*-* for the saved output). One possibility from being able to construct a cast-iron match is to apply this directly into the kernel module. ** Changed in: powernowd (Ubuntu) Status: Unconfirmed => Rejected -- no speedstep for PIII Latitude C800 https://launchpad.net/bugs/36604 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
