While following this thread I got it up

be sure CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_GOV_ONDEMAND is set in your kernel config.

emerge cpufrequtils

set GOVERNOR="ondemand"  in /etc/conf.d/cpufrequtils

rc-update add cpufrequtils boot

I think 'ondemand' governor changes core frequency and voltage based on
the CPU load, not temperature. There are several governors available in
the kernel, maybe 'powersave' is what you are looking for? Just a guess,
I have not experimented with any except 'ondemand' (and I am quite happy
with it on a desktop system). Probably google can be more precise :-).

You can change governor on the fly (provided it's compiled in the kernel):

# echo insert_governor_name_here >
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor

(all on one line). Check again the HOTWO link I already sent.
