Hello,

I have just noticed that enabling cpufreq on my Dell PowerEdge 1425SC changes my secondary cpu clock to 2.8GHz.

You shouldn't be using this driver. Use speedstep-centrino or

Hm... speedstep-centrino on Xeon? AFAIK speedstep-centrino requires "est" and /proc/cpuinfo does not mention this flag:

acpi-cpufrreq.

I will check this, thank you. BTW: what wrong is with p4-clockmod? I was not able to find any information that it is broken and should not be used?

Best regards,
