What you should get is: # /etc/init.d/cpuspeed stop # /etc/init.d/cpuspeed status cpuspeed is stopped # lsmod |grep -i cpu acpi_cpufreq 6285 1 mperf 1141 1 acpi_cpufreq This is the package: $ yum list installed cpuspeed cpuspeed.i686 1:1.5-14.fc14 @anaconda-InstallationRepo-201010031452.i386 $ rpm -ql cpuspeed /etc/rc.d/init.d/cpuspeed /etc/sysconfig/cpuspeed /usr/sbin/cpuspeed /usr/share/doc/cpuspeed-1.5 /usr/share/doc/cpuspeed-1.5/CHANGES /usr/share/doc/cpuspeed-1.5/CONTRIBUTORS /usr/share/doc/cpuspeed-1.5/EXAMPLES /usr/share/doc/cpuspeed-1.5/FEATURES /usr/share/doc/cpuspeed-1.5/README /usr/share/doc/cpuspeed-1.5/USAGE /usr/share/doc/cpuspeed-1.5/license.txt /usr/share/man/man8/cpuspeed.8.gz So, $ rpm -V cpuspeed Take a look at /etc/sysconfig/cpuspeed which should not have been modified (normally) - it is a config file. If you are in doubt, reinstall this package (nor problem...): # yum reinstall cpuspeed and start all over as I showed above.

There is always a possibility that some CPUs do not work (such note is in cpu freq docs), but it is not obvious why in this case.
