Hardware Certification

Fixed an issue in the cpuscaling test getting the current frequency from
cpupower


   -

   The cpuscaling test may fail when the cpupower command does not return
   the current frequency from the hardware.
   -

   The test now honors the frequency from the kernel when the frequency is
   not returned from the hardware via the cpupower command.

 Reminder - End of minor release announcements

With the multiple mechanisms and methods to keep partners informed and
systems up to date, Red Hat will stop sending these regular update messages
about Red Hat Certification minor update releases.

This is our final Red Hat Certification errata update announcement and
marks the end of the adjustment period for those that rely on this email
