This page holds information on how to make additional hardware work on your Thinkpad.

The pages linked here hold instructions for installing or configuring certain drivers to make them work with ThinkPad hardware. For an overview of the drivers themselves please look at the Drivers page.

  • SpeedStep on piix4 (How to make SpeedStep (cpufreq) work on Coppermine-piix4-smi based Thinkpads)
  • SpeedStep on P4-class Celeron (How to get SpeedStep working on P4-class-Celeron based Thinkpads)
  • cpufreqd (How to configure the cpufreqd SpeedStep daemon)
  • powersaved (How to configure the cpufreqd SpeedStep daemon)
  • Don't forget that the newer kernels have fancier cpu frequency governors like OnDemand and Conservative that are easy to configure via SysFS. These governors are adequate in many situations and do not require user-space daemons such as cpufreqd, powersaved, or powernowd. (Somebody should probably detail this in a separate page)
