** Description changed:

  On Dapper "current" (060520):
  
  dmesg says:
  Low: 667 Mhz, High: 667 Mhz, Boot: 667 Mhz
  sysfs agrees:
  > cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/cpuinfo_min_freq
  667000
  and the PowerBook fan agrees, too, and consequently stays on after maybe half an hour of minimal usage. I'm quite confident I was using Debian sarge (or pre-sarge testing) on this machine some time ago with no problems like this.

  Also, cpufreq modules are loaded and powernowd is running.

  Note: the original reporter indicated the bug was in package 'linux-image-2.6.15-20-powerpc'; however, that package was not published in Ubuntu.
