You're probably talking about the amd768 module. I could use it, but I
never got it working correctly, there is no actual power reduction. It
may have to do with the fast (1000 Hz) 2.6 clock though, making it sleep
in C2/C3 for only very short intervals. Also the selection for idle
CPU's seems to be too simple.
