This package adds the following enhancements: * Userspace needed to support the loading of the new Powernow-k8 module that has changed from being built in. By rectifying this bug, Userspace now loads the new module correctly. * The cpuspeed init script needed to support loading the speedstep-centrino module if all other module loads had failed. This fallback for Intel hardware is now included with this updated package.
