Hi Alex,
In Mdk9.2 my Acer run only 1 hour or so! I had to manually change the 
processor cycle in the /proc/acpi/processor/CPU0/ (cmiiw, I forgot).

But, In Mdk10.1, I think Mdk finally get it right (although not as good as 
speedstep implementation in WinXP, not yet). It now can run for about 2,5 
hours (compared to WinXP's 4 hours or so). Well, not bad.
