** Description changed:

  After upgrade from ubuntu eee 8.01.1 to easy peasy 8.10 I see message
  that "CPU Frequency Scaling is not supported". apt-get installing
  cpufreqd and cpufrequtils allows gnome applet to monitor the freq but
  its locked at "perfomance". Manualy loading p4_clockmod (modprobe
  p4_clockmod) allows proper operation, BUT adding p4_clockmod to
  /etc/modules and rebooting does NOT allow gnome applet to change speeds.
  In other words, p4_clockmod only works if loaded manualy.

+ This also happens in a fresh install of easy peasy. It may be 70x specific.
