acpi_processor-0959 [17] acpi_processor_get_per: Unsupported address
space [127] (control_register)

Is there a way for me to examine the ACPI namespace in order to
determine what the parser has put in my CPU0 structure?

In what way are cpufreq and ACPI related? My laptop has an Athlon4 in
it, which is not supported by the kernel's cpufreq (yet).

Concerning the powernow-k7 / Athlon driver: Dave Jones is working on it. 

If you're impatient and your CPU is a Mobile Athlon 4 (not XP) with
1200MHz or lower, then you might want to try rtdvs with the 
patch by David Kimdom. With a newer CPU you'd have to do some 
hacking in the driver.

For me it works fine. It's not a very smart solution (like CPUfreq
will be) and I only set the voltage and frequency manually, but I
can save a lot of power (50%).
