I have a T23.  I've added cpufreq patch from Con Kolivas' page to
vanilla 2.4.21.  I can change the CPU speed by writing to
/proc/sys/cpu/0/speed, and see the results there, but /proc/cpuinfo
always stays the same.

I assume cpufreq "works", as I see the time regularily jumping backwards
by several microseconds at 866 MHz, and no such effects at 666 MHz.
I think /proc/cpuinfo is just not kept up to date by the patch.
