I was getting the "BIOS error - no PSB" message when trying to "modprobe powernow-k8", so I upgraded to 2.6.5-rc3-mm4 which includes Pavel Machek's new powernow-k8 driver. Theoretically, it should be getting tables through ACPI and ignore the legacy PST/PSB tables, but I'm still getting the same error as before and inserting powernow-k8 fails with this message: FATAL: Error inserting powernow_k8 (/lib/modules/2.6.5-rc3-mm4/kernel/arch/x86_64/cpufreq/powernow-k8.ko): No such device Is there anything I need to tell the kernel explicitly to inform it not to use the legacy method? Any kernel options I might have overlooked? BIOS support for ACPI 2.0 is activated and APIC APIC Supprt enabled. I'm confused about this boot message, though: PCI bridge 00:01 from 1106 found. Setting "noapic".
