I'm running a fully updated Jaunty as of 2009-04-22, and the problem is not fixed. They did two (possibly more) changes from intrepid>jaunty. First they reomved the acpi_cpufreq module, and cpufreq_* governors as modules (they are now compiled into the kernel). Then they removed powernowd from the standard installation, which did set ondemand as cpu frequency governor (i belive, correct me if i'm wrong). So, what is needed now is ondemand by default (at least on laptop/notebook computers). This can be achived by installing "cpufrequtils" (or powernowd for that matter). The cpufrequtils daemon runs by default at startup, and sets the governor to "ondemand". However, what method will be used is up to the developers. It's needed though. A desktop computer can easily cope with the "performance" governor easily enough, but my laptop does get quite hot. For a new user, figuring this stuff out may prove to be "too much".
