# SUSE INITRD: processor REQUIRES acpi-cpufreq
What kind of modprobe.conf syntax is that?
Is that documented somewhere, man modprobe.conf does not list soemthing like
that.
First: Thanks for the details and the testing.
I do not like the whole approach, starting from "calling request_module".
One hack on top of the other...
I have an idea how this possibly could get solved inside the kernel, but it's
somewhat more intrusive.
The idea is to introduce another "ACPI fake hid": LNXCPUFQ (or similar).
If the processor object has cpufreq functions, add LNXCPUFQ as CID (Compatible
Id) and let the acpi-cpufreq driver autoload as an acpi driver.
Hm, rather complex as well, I wonder whether it should just get autoloaded via
X86 cpu autoloading matching for "est" (Enhanced SpeedStep) cpuflag.
I'll bring up the topic on a list, add you to CC and use this bug as reference.
