rebased cpufreq patch?
Quoted 4 lines
Hi there,
Is there any chance of getting the CPUFreq patch rebased against 2.4.22-pre3 ?
I'll be working on an updated version within the next few days, check
http://www.codemonkey.org.uk/cpufreq/ for updated patches, please.

I have been using the two patches linux-2.4.20-cpufreq.patch and cpufreq-centrino.patch against 2.4.21-rc7-ac1 since June 12th without any problems. From what I can tell, it is working very well indeed, so if it could be included in -pre4 it'd be great.
IMHO it's no stuff for 2.4.22. Davej/Russell, what's your opinion about 2.4. in general?

I've no objection really, but it does mean that we would be introducing an already obsolete interface into mainline. (~Not htat that's really a problem, we did already for 2.5 anyway).

I'd like to see the core in asap, if possible for .22, and I don't care that much about the interface right now...
The point is that a bunch of recent Apple laptops boot at low speed by default, and the only way I provide to switch them to full speed is via cpufreq... That's one of the few bits still preventing me to fully merge my "powermac" kernels into mainline.
