[Bug 61011] Unable to use speedstepping in Edgy

[slace]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: powersaved

After recient updates I have no longer been able to use speedstepping on
my laptop.

I get this error when starting powersaved:
FATAL: Error inserting speedstep_centrino (/lib/modules/2.6.17-6-386/kernel/arch/i386/kernel/cpu/cpufreq/speedstep-centrino.ko): No such device

Kernel version - 2.6.17-6-386
Laptop info:
sudo dmidecode -s system-manufacturer
Acer

sudo dmidecode -s system-product-name
TravelMate 650

sudo dmidecode -s system-version
Rev 1

I'm still using the 2.6.17-6 kernel as the -7 wont boot for me at all.

Previously speedstepping was previously, with klaptop (and powernowd),
which I uninstalled in favour of powersaved (upon recommendation), and
then it was working for a while with powersaved.
