Some atom procs don't do freq scaling (such as the atom 330 on my own

the benefit of passive cooling in a thermal emergency.
Not sure how to see that its actually helping any,
but the driver does bind and
claim its functioning on my atom 330.
I do not think this is a good idea.
There was a patch posted for a eeepc specific cpufreq enhancement
making use of some "not official" ACPI methods.
Re: [PATCH 1/1] cpufreq: eeepc 900 frequency scaling driver
There existed two version, one of Tom Hughes integrating the cpufreq
parts into the already existing eeepc driver and one of Cristiano
Prisciandaro providing a separate eeepc cpufreq driver.
Note that theses patches was specifically for the pre-Atom eee's - the
eee 900 (and possibly eee 701 with later bios versions). So they
shouldn't clash at all with anything that is targeted at Atom based
machines.
