Request: Frequency Scaling on the Vortex86MX?

#1 Post by LoneRifle »

Ever since BarryK and others have reported on heat problems on the Edubook, the thought of using frequency scaling to control power consumption has crossed my mind. there is a programmer's reference, found here:
ftp://ftp.dmp.com.tw/DMP_Vortex86_Serie ... 091216.pdf

That should work towards building a cpufreq module for use with the Vortex86 family. Unfortunately, I do not do Linux kernel drivers, so would anyone be bold enough to try?
