[Bug 132403] Re: Cpu frequency scaling is limited to stock speeds

[Florian Schröck]

this problem has not changed in karmic with 2.6.31 and 2.6.32 (mainline), and lucid with 2.6.32
i have to disable speedstep in the BIOS to enable the overclocked frequency. 

on other kernels (phc for example) it's possible to unload the acpi-
cpufreq module as a workaround - but the module is not modular (compiled
in) with the the ubuntu kernels :(

i need to overclock to watch 1080p movies smoothly :(

Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Quad  CPU   Q9450  
stock: 2.66GHz
overclocked to 3,2 GHz (FSB 400)
on Asus P5K with Intel P35/ICH9
