OK fixed,
It was an total different problem afterall.
I had to add the user to the powerdev group to make it work.
I found this out after doing a ps -aux and finding that powersaved was
 running. I just got confused by
1. error message at bootime
2. error message when doing a /etc/init.d/powersaved start. (that plain
 "failed" message was not much of an help)
3. By the error message of kpowesave telling me powersave was not running.
 (Maybe adding a message like " check user is in powerdev group" would help
 many users)

Thanks everyone for helping
Btw the module that get's loaded during boottime is called speedstep_lib (or
something like that, I can check if you want when I get back on the notebook)
So maybe it could be usefull it powersaved looked for that module before
 telling the user of  "only works with AMD K7 CPUs "

My 2c


Thanks again
