Wow, that's weird, wish my AMD would do speeds like that :)

As for your temperature observation - I have no idea sorry. It would appear that powerd is doing the right thing but for some reason your CPU is not benefiting. That said checking by measuring temperature is fraught with complexity because there is probably a significant delay between a change in power consumption and a corresponding chaange in heatsink temperature.

Actually, i took readings from the wrong box :P

CPU: AMD Athlon(tm) Processor (1210.79-MHz 686-class CPU)
acpi0: <ASUS A7V> on motherboard

Thats the correct one, it is 75mhz. I was suspecting hardwares limitations in terms of modulating the frequency quickly enough. Just wanted to make sure.
