Hi,

Celeron 220 in MoBo D201GLY2  said:
p4-clockmod: Unknown p4-clockmod-capable CPU. Please send an e-mail to 
<cpufreq@lists.linux.org.uk>

Is it possible to use any clockmod ?

Best regards,
Michal Zahor

Can the p4-clockmod driver be finally removed?

AFAIK it's doing exactly the same as throttling.
I can remember it interfered with throttling
through /proc/acpi/processor/*/throttling and made the machine very slow
if both got used.

The throttling interface got enhanced recently and is the one to go for.

There were hundreds of confusing p4-clockmod reports now on the cpufreq
list... and since a distribution (guessing) is trying to load it by
default the amount of these reports seem to increase recently.

DaveJ shut it off in the Fedora kernels a while ago now, and only a few people 
have even noticed, and most understood that it was for the best...
