[Bug 31291] Re: Ondemand governor for cpufreq put the CPU at maximum frequency always

I have found frequency scaling not to be working on my pentium 4 box
when it did work on the previous Gentoo installation (which
unfortunately I have trashed so I won't be able to tell you which kernel
I was using beyond that it was a 2.6.15 variant).

What I would expect to happen would be for me to drop the gnome
frequency scaling applet on the top bar and be able to choose my
governor or frequency. Instead I get a message saying frequency scaling
is not supported. Perhaps there are some kernel modules I need to
modprobe, but this is the kind of thing that should work out of the box.

The processor is a hyperthreading P4 and the motherboard is an Asus p4p-
800se (intel 865 chipset).
