Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: linux-generic

It looks like most of the cpufreq drivers are missing on Hardy/amd64 (at
least in the 2.6.24-19-generic kernel packages). In the i386 packages,
/lib/modules/2.6.24-19-server/kernel/arch/x86/kernel/cpu/cpufreq
contains the following:

acpi-cpufreq.ko     longhaul.ko     powernow-k6.ko  speedstep-centrino.ko  speedstep-smi.ko
cpufreq-nforce2.ko  longrun.ko      powernow-k7.ko  speedstep-ich.ko
gx-suspmod.ko       p4-clockmod.ko  powernow-k8.ko  speedstep-lib.ko

But on amd64, it contains:

acpi-cpufreq.ko  powernow-k8.ko

*Big* difference, and it means that on the bulk of Intel hardware
there's no support for cpufreq/powernowd if you're running amd64. Can
these modules get re-included with the amd64 kernels, please?
