I have an HP with an Athlon processor which works with powernow-k7. It 
is not supported by the smp kernel. I tried it since having one kernel 
for single processors and multiprocessors was proposed awhile back.

I use the stock kernel, 2.6.13-1.1594_FC5 currently (development). My 
speed works fine and has worked acceptable since the severn beta.

There is no module listed for it and it is within the kernel. I have 
acpi enabled which I believe is also needed. I have a mobile AMD 
Athlon(tm) XP1800+ proccessor.
