I tried acpi_cpufreq and it works without problems. But I'm curious why
speedstep_centrino doesn't work anymore.

Hi.

What's up? Any plans to fix this problem? Or will this module become obsolete?
Some responses would be really nice.

Regards,
Alex

There is a plan to use acpi-cpufreq, so it's a good news. As for breakage of
speedstep-centrino, maybe you can enable ACPI_DEBUG and provide dmesg and
/var/log/messages while inserting the module. 
Have you tried latest kernel by chance?

There are no messages while inserting speedstep-centrino. CONFIG_ACPI_DEBUG,
CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_DEBUG, CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL and CONFIG_DEBUG_BUGVERBOSE enabled.

Same problem with kernel 2.6.23.12.

speedstep-centrino is deprecated, you have to use acpi-cpufreq.

According to comment #1:
> I tried acpi_cpufreq and it works without problems. But I'm curious why

IMO this one can be closed -> doing so.
