Since Alan Cox is busy with some _other_ stuffs, and the last -ac series was the 2.4.22-ac4, and I wanted the New "Laptop_mode" I did some hacking of my own. So.. Here's the patch for cpufreq (taken from a site in http://ftp.linuk.org.uk) against the vanilla 2.4.23 kernel (taken from http://kernel.org) (why is it called vanilla.. why can't it be rum-&-raisin?? yumm) I've tested it on my Laptop and CPUFreq compiled in without any problems and I'm using it. (NO extensive testing. I just made the patch like yesterday _night_. It was a long night...) So.. I guess now, I have the best of both...CPUfreq and Laptop_mode support.. Yeh!!! (I'm Very proud of myself my very 1st patch and my very 1st contribution to the Linux community.. So.. let me boast it out a bit okay???) if anyone wants this as an attachment.. Drop me a email
