I don't have a entry for CONFIG_X86_ACPI_CPUFREQ in my kernel .config file...

Here is the call stack.... (aploigies if there are errors, as it's reproduced from a notepad scribble...)

__CPUFREQ_GOVERNOR
__CPUFREQ_SET_POLICY
CPUFREQ_SET_POLICY
CPUFREQ_ADD_DEV
UPDATE_PROCESS_TIMES
REMOVE_VM_AREA
SYSDEV_DRIVER_REGISTER
CPUFREQ_DRIVER_REGISTER
LONGHAUL_INIT
DO_INITCALLS
INIT
INIT
KERNEL_THREAD_HELPER

well, I decided to have a go at putting a 2.6 kernel together for my eden miniIITX system (currently running 2.4.23). I compiled the kernel, and rebooted, but the kernel panics and does a stack dump. It CPUFreq and the userspace governer seems to be the falling over point.

Is this a know problem? Anything I can do to work around it?

I think it might be an ACPI problem again... can you do the following, please?
a) write down the call trace [function names are enough]
b) disable CONFIG_X86_ACPI_CPUFREQ and try again

Thanks, and happy holidays,
Dominik
