Has anyone had any luck with speedstep on piix-controlled coppermine
P3 mobile chips?  I haven't been able to get it to work on either a
T20 or an s30.  Works fine on a dell from the same period.  I've tried
all the options on the thinkwiki page
(http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/How_to_get_SpeedStep_working_on_Coppermine-p=
iix4-smi_based_ThinkPads),
but none of them work.  I get:
FATAL: Error inserting speedstep_smi
(/lib/modules/2.6.15-19-386/kernel/arch/i386/kernel/cpu/cpufreq/speedstep-s=
mi.ko):
No such device
Before I ask on linux-kernel or the cpu-freq lists, has anyone gotten
this working on Dapper? And if so, how?

Thanks,

Alex
