Hi, As the author listed in the driver didn't respond to my email so far, I am now writing to this list in the hope that somebody may be able to help me - feel free to redirect me if you think I am wrong here :-) So, my problem is that sound playback starts stuttering as soon as I load the speedstep-smi driver on my T20 thinkpad (with T22 BIOS), without even having changed the frequency. Frequency switching otherwise seems to work fine. I can get rid of the stuttering by causing 100 % CPU load - but that's somewhat counterproductive given that I wanted to reduce power consumption ... :-) If you have any hints as to how to debug this, I would appreciate it very much.
