Hi,
I'm also unable to get AMD PowerNow working on 7.1 on a Dell Opteron
server (PowerEdge 2970). Whenever I run "powerd", I get:
# powerd -a adp
powerd: lookup freq: No such file or directory
If I look at the sysctl output, the 'freq' stuff seems to be missing
from 'dev.cpu'. I have definitely gone into the server BIOS and
enabled the option (don't remember what it's called now) for frequency
control. I have also checked that 'cpufreq' is included in the kernel
config, but it's a default GENERIC anyway.
