AMD and its partners have worked together to implement Cool'n'Quiet technology as a system feature that consists of: a processor with Cool'n'Quiet technology enabled, motherboard, supporting BIOS, software driver and CPU cooler.
Not just a software issue.
Since a software driver is also required I doubt there is any Solaris 10 support. Sun has very good support for the opteron processors which do not offer this feature.
If you wish such a design and run solaris you 'd need to go to the sun site and see the cool threads offerings.
I read it wrong and answer it wrong too. So get off my case you goober.
