[Bug 35044] speedstep-smi doesn't load anymore on thinkpad t20

[Olaf Leidinger]

Public bug reported:
https://launchpad.net/malone/bugs/35044

Affects: linux-source-2.6.15 (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Normal
       Priority: (none set)
         Status: Unconfirmed

Description:
Upgrading from  breezy to dapper >= 2.6.15-14 frequency scaling doesn't
work anymore. When manually loding speedstep-smi I get

"No such device" as answer.

Maybe this is a ubuntu/debian problem, as booting ubuntu with a hand
crafted gentoo-sources 2.6.15 kernel,  speedstep-smi works fine (well, I
compiled it into the kernel).
