Subject: powernow-k7: changing of VID is posible, says tom...

Message-ID: <415DBE12.6020104@professor.ru> (raw)
So, I've read many things about this and one of them was thread:
http://www.linux.org.uk/mailman/private/cpufreq/2004-June/003812.html
about "[PATCH] powernow-k7: Userspace PST for Athlon XP-M on desktop
boards".
I know that only FID of mobile CPUs can be changed on desktop board.
Personaly, I've modded my Barton to Mobile one but I had no time to try
changing FID in Linux. In Window$ all worked well.
BUT !!!
Today, I've read on Tom's Hardware that there IS way to change VID on
the fly. He says that "AMD keeps the corresponding utility under lock
and key for security reasons."

So, if AMD has that utility for Window$,
http://www.tomshardware.com/cpu/20041001/athlon-underclocking-06.html
I guess it's posible to make something similar for Linux
Or, maybe, Tom just wants to raise number of hits for his site? ;)
