Hi,

I am trying to find out if the Geode LX processors supports the CPU Frequency Scaling feature that comes in Linux kernel?

If yes, should I use the "dynamic cpufreq governor" from inside the kernel or should I use the userspace tools? Or it does not matter?

debian:~# cat /proc/cpuinfo 
processor       : 0
vendor_id       : AuthenticAMD
cpu family      : 5
model           : 10
model name      : Geode(TM) Integrated Processor by AMD PCS
stepping        : 2
cpu MHz         : 498.077
cache size      : 128 KB
fdiv_bug        : no
hlt_bug         : no
f00f_bug        : no
coma_bug        : no
fpu             : yes
fpu_exception   : yes
cpuid level     : 1
wp              : yes
flags           : fpu de pse tsc msr cx8 sep pge cmov clflush mmx mmxext 3dnowext 3dnow
bogomips        : 997.69
