This problem first occurred 1 year ago on Maverick Meerkat.
I just upgraded and now it has appeared again.
I cannot get the indicator-cpufreq to start either.
I added the ignore_ppc = 1 to the grub but whilst that fixed it in
Meerkat, it does not in Ocelot.

don't use this driver. it's nothing but disappointment and doesn't save you power.
I see the inspiron 9300 has a pentium M. Some of these lacked EST iirc,
so you're probably completely out of luck, and can't scale clock speed.

How can I change the driver? This is what Ocelot installed by itself.
It seems strange that the Pentium would be left out.
Isn't there a workaround to get the speed up to max?
Even the indicator-cpufreq does not work.

All of a sudden the indicator-frequency has started working again.
However, it lists my max CPU at 0.6GHz instead of 1.73.
It is on the governor performance.
?

I tried sudo modprobe speedstep-smi but it didn;t change the driver at all.

-smi is for ancient hardware.

oh, so your cpu does have est. It should be using acpi-cpufreq driver.
