I was able to build and install the same version of openCV (2.4.9) on BBB 
debian as on my desktop Ubuntu by using an external USB memory stick.
Now I have a problem with changing CPU frequency (as I would like to 
increase it from 300MHz to 1GHz)

debian@beaglebone:~$ cpufreq-info
cpufrequtils 008: cpufreq-info (C) Dominik Brodowski 2004-2009
Report errors and bugs to [email protected], please.
analyzing CPU 0:
  driver: generic_cpu0
  CPUs which run at the same hardware frequency: 0
  CPUs which need to have their frequency coordinated by software: 0
  maximum transition latency: 300 us.
  hardware limits: 300 MHz - 1000 MHz
  available frequency steps: 300 MHz, 600 MHz, 800 MHz, 1000 MHz
  available cpufreq governors: conservative, ondemand, userspace, 
powersave, performance
  current policy: frequency should be within 300 MHz and 1000 MHz.
                  The governor "ondemand" may decide which speed to use
                  within this range.
*  current CPU frequency is 300 MHz.*
  cpufreq stats: 300 MHz:97.20%, 600 MHz:0.20%, 800 MHz:0.06%, 1000 
MHz:2.55%  (35)

debian@beaglebone:~$ sudo cpufreq-set -g GOV
*Error setting new values*. Common errors:
- Do you have proper administration rights? (super-user?)
- Is the governor you requested available and modprobed?
- Trying to set an invalid policy?
- Trying to set a specific frequency, but userspace governor is not 
available,
   for example because of hardware which cannot be set to a specific 
frequency
   or because the userspace governor isn't loaded?
debian@beaglebone:~$ 

What am I doing wrong?
