I don't thik this (desktop) chip supports (powernow) cpu-freq scaling.

And the available drivers in the latest kernel appear to be
consolidated.

from FC1:
  ls /lib/modules/2.4.22-1.2174.nptl/kernel/arch/i386/kernel
cpuid.o  longhaul.o  microcode.o  p4-clockmod.o  powernow-k7.o         speedstep-ich.o
edd.o    longrun.o   msr.o        powernow-k6.o  speedstep-centrino.o  speedstep-lib.o

from rawhide:
  ls  /lib/modules/2.6.3-2.1.253/kernel/arch/i386/kernel/cpu/cpufreq/
acpi.ko  p4-clockmod.ko  powernow-k6.ko  speedstep-smi.ko
