[PATCH 1/2] powernow-k8: Fixup missing _PSS objects message

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Borislav Petkov <borislav.petkov@xxxxxxx>

_PSS objects can also be missing if Cool'N'Quiet is disabled in the
BIOS. Add that to the FW_BUG message for the user to try before updating
her BIOS. Fix formatting.
