Hi,

I found the Problem:

The ACPI table has 16 entrys, but only the first 5 entrys are valid
values the rest of them seems to have 0xffff as value.

If i add the line "p.state_count=5;" before line 345 in the
speedstep-centrino.c which you send me it works perfect for me.

Hope this helps :)

them with a hammer. Nomes didn't respond well to this treatment.
