Yep, please mail me your kernel config. I haven't tried arround with 
cpufrequtils right now, but k8-temp is in kernel and seems it's working,

i needed to look for a winxp inf file for this wireless network adapter 
and i'm using it with ndiswrapper. The Vista driver isn't working with 
ndiswrapper. Anyway - it's working.

i haven't tried model=acer right now - and i don't have much experience 
with modules where do i set this options? (normally i have everything i
