    Hi,

    I have the following patch to add to arch/ppc/platforms/pmac_cpufreq.c
    under kernel 2.6. it enables the PowerBook3,3 plateform to dynamically
    change the cpu speed. Without it, my Titanium 2 powerbook 550 MHz have
    always its fan at full speed and crashes in various ways. The
    PowerBook3,3 plateform are the titanium powerbooks at 550 and 667 MHz
    what were introducted at the end of 2001.

    I hope this patch will be included in the standard kernel as it is the
    only blocking problem I was experiencing using a fedora-2/3 ppc
    distribution.

    The patch is against the standard kernel 2.6.8.1 from kernel.org. I
    know the file has changed under the various bk kernels, but it must
    also apply (as this plateform PowerBook3,3 is not taken into account in
    them also).

    Regards,
