Hi
Google is responding poorly with this problem.
My AMILOPRO V2030 with 1.5 GHertz centrino gives the following output: 

/var/log/kern.log:
Nov 20 16:33:49 amilopro kernel: p4-clockmod: Warning: Pentium M
detected. The speedstep_centrino module offers voltage scaling in
addition of frequency scaling. You should use that instead of
p4-clockmod, if possible.
Nov 20 16:33:49 amilopro kernel: p4-clockmod: P4/Xeon(TM) CPU On-Demand
Clock Modulation available

I have put p4-clockmod in /etc/modprobe/blacklist , but output of
kern.log remains the same after 
init 6

locate speedstep-centrino shows the driver is there.
What else can I doo to use correct driver and crank cpu speed up after
keypressed ?

best regards
