[PATCH] powernow-k8: depend on acpi-processor for SMP systems

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



powernow-k8 uses PSB BIOS tables to read frequency info on UP systems, but
on SMP it requires the acpi-processor driver. Kconfig should be updated
accordingly to avoid the issues that users are running into.
