hi,

I know about this. But I think the CPU should give me power if I need
it. I use cpu frequency scaling only on AC. If I use my notebook on
battery it is always running on 600MHz.

My favourite is the kernel version, because it swichtes faster and is
not a user space daemon more. There are too many of them. Every one
should use what he like. I tried to mention that there are other
possibilities that's all.

You can use what you like and you do :)

Building an operation system without source code,
is like buying a  self assemble space shuttle without
instructions.
