Hi,

Im having troubles trying to enable cpufreq on a toshiba portege
3480ct, with Intel Corp. 82440MX chipset.

I have tried several values for smi_cmd and smi_port, without success,
also changing speedstep modes on bios, with same result.


Thanks,

Hi,

please try out

modprobe speedstep-smi smi_cmd=0x82 smi_port=0xb2 smi_sig=1

Re-try with said parameters and _different_ BIOS settings. Maybe one such
combination actually works... Oh, and the acpi-cpufreq driver does not work
on your system, I suppose?

I dont know what could be happening, changing bios settings, has no
effect. And no, acpi-cpufreq doesnt work :(

Anyway, Thanks for your help.
Jaime.
