robin, as per http://h20565.www2.hp.com/portal/site/hpsc/template.PAGE/public/psi/swdHome/?sp4ts.oid=1839169&spf_p.tpst=swdMain&spf_p.prp_swdMain=wsrp-navigationalState%3DswEnvOID%253D2104%257CswLang%253D%257Caction%253DlistDriver&javax.portlet.begCacheTok=com.vignette.cachetoken&javax.portlet.endCacheTok=com.vignette.cachetoken#BIOS an update to your BIOS is available (F.0E). If you update to this following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BiosUpdate does it change anything?  If it doesn't, could you please both specify what happened, and provide the output of the following terminal command:
sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date

Please note your current BIOS is already in the Bug Description, so
posting this on the old BIOS would not be helpful.

For more on BIOS updates and linux, please see
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Bug_reporting_etiquette
.

Thank you for your understanding.

Title:
  [HP Compaq nx6320 Notebook PC] CPU frequency scaling not available

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  On login, I am presented with a dialogue stating that frequency scaling is not available for my hardware. Also, the frequency scaling applet informs me of the same. This contradicts the physical characteristics of the CPU, which does support frequency scaling. This page informs me that Intel SpeedStep technology is available for the CPU I am using:
  http://ark.intel.com/products/27253

  At boot, i get the following messages:
   * Loading cpufreq kernel modules...                                                                                     [fail]
   * Starting CPU Frequency daemon cpufreqd                                                                                [fail]

  $ lshw provides the following output for the CPU:
