Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: linux-image-2.6.28-11-generic

Upon booting 9.04 Jaunty on my netbook (Intel Atom N270 @ 1.66GHz) the
system is using the ondemand governor, and is running at 800Mhz.
There's virtually nothing I can do to the system to get it to use a
faster frequency.  Setting the governor to "performance" makes it got to
1.6GHz.

I've written a small "while(1) i++;" program to load down both virtual
cores (hyperthreaded) and even under 100% load on both cores, it still
sticks at 800MHz.

I'm on battery power 100% of the time, including the initial boot.  I
haven't checked to see if there's anything different if under AC power,
but can do so if you think it would effect this.
