mnt/sda/usr/src/linux-2.6.15-gentoo-r7
jim@keelie$ grep -i cpufreq .config
# CPUFreq processor drivers
CONFIG_X86_ACPI_CPUFREQ=y
CONFIG_X86_ACPI_CPUFREQ_PROC_INTF=y


/mnt/sda/usr/src/linux-2.6.16-gentoo
jim@keelie$ grep -i cpufreq .config
# CPUFreq processor drivers
CONFIG_X86_ACPI_CPUFREQ=y
CONFIG_X86_ACPI_CPUFREQ_PROC_INTF=y

If I boot into 2.6.15 /proc/cpuinfo show the correct info and the AMD
cool-n-quite thingy is working real well.  It put the processor at 1100
MHz or instantly ramps up to 2200 MHz.  If I boot into 2.6.16, the AMD
cool-n-quite thingy works, but now the processor goes down to 1000 MHz
or 2000 MHz.

I will recompile 2.6.16 without cpufreq and see if that help.
