Hi, My kern.log is getting spammed with about 20 "powernow-k8: transition frequency failed" messages per second. Is there a fix for this? I've got a AMD Phenom II X6 1055T (2.8GHz). thanks! Jay Here is some info about my system. I'm happy to provide more, I just don't know what would be useful. Ubuntu 11.10 system.
