I have a Dothan Intel Pentium M Processor 735 1700 MHz, and it works
great !

Do you mean you have a line saying something like :
"unsupported Intel ... please send /proc/cpuinfo to jeremy@goop.org"?

if so, I do have this warning but I can throttle speed anyway.

Are you sure the default behaviour for the cpufreq mode is "userspace"
in the kernel ?

I am using the daemon speedfreqd which you can find here :

and it is started by init (at bootime) after installation.

I then use a little dockapp to throttle "user-friendly" :

hope this helps,
