I discovered the powernow_k8 module wasn't loaded. Now that it is, cpufreq-set has rolled both cores back to 500 MHz using ondemand. TZ01 is already down to 55 C. I'll have to look into removing cpufreqd. Thanks for all the help, list. Now maybe my laptop won't burn up before I find my next gig. :-) -- Any technology distinguishable from magic is insufficiently advanced.
