Intel Celeron M 530 cpu not recognized by cpufreq nor p4_clockmod

Hi,
on my new Toshiba A20 laptop I've never been able to see cpufreq working, so the cpu is always at max speed (1.73GHz); this applies to kernel 2.6.23 on both Ubuntu 7.10 and Fedora 8, and now 2.6.24 on Fedora (2.6.24.4-64.fc8). This post says I need the p4_clockmod driver:
http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-bugs/2008-03/msg05714.html
So I compiled the p4_clockmod module from the kernel sources but when I do:
modprobe p4_clockmod
I get:
FATAL: Error inserting p4_clockmod (/lib/modules/2.6.24.4-64.fc8/kernel/arch/x86/kernel/cpu/cpufreq/p4-clockmod.ko): No such device
Here's what I found in the syslog:

Apr  5 10:51:12 amc kernel: p4-clockmod: Unknown p4-clockmod-capable CPU. Please send an e-mail to <[email protected]>

And here's my /proc/cpuinfo output:
[root@amc 2.6.24.4-64.fc8]# cat /proc/cpuinfo

Please help!

Hi,

Well, the p4 clockmod driver is only useful in rare corner cases unlikely to be relevant on your system, and the hardware you own (Celeron) doesn't support proper CPU frequency scaling.
