With newest Intel CPU, to enable Boost and other features i need intel_pstate module.
With right command shell i found that the flag is enabled.
Why no module can be loaded with modprobe?

See this thread to understand more about intel_state:

Basically, when you have an intel processor that can use intel_psate, it is automatically loaded for you.
It is build into the KaOS kernel:

Help is always appreciated but.
Here is the problem. Look this:

[root@claudio-ge72-6qd claudiom]# modprobe intel_pstate
modprobe: FATAL: Module intel_pstate not found in directory /lib/modules/4.2.6-1
[root@claudio-ge72-6qd claudiom]# modprobe acpi-cpufreq

And my CPU cannot enable Boost state.
If is compiled, why is not loadeable??

Again, read what I linked you, this is not a user controlled module.

Ok understand that.
I have thought that this module need to be present in that folder.

I'll try to disable that module and use acpi-cpufreq. Thanks
