Hello,

i have a problem configuring my CPU-freq-scaling.
I do have laptopmode, cpufreqd and cpufrequtils. laptopmode is added to 
battery runlevel, cpufeqd to default and battery and cpufrequtils to nothing.

Do i need both, cpufreqd and utils ? What do i have to do to make 
speedstepping work. I can change frequency manually bei typing cpufreq-set

analyzing CPU 0:
  driver: centrino
  CPUs which need to switch frequency at the same time: 0
  hardware limits: 800 MHz - 2.00 GHz
  available frequency steps: 2.00 GHz, 1.60 GHz, 1.33 GHz, 1.07 GHz, 800 MHz
  available cpufreq governors: conservative, ondemand, powersave, userspace, 
performance
  current policy: frequency should be within 800 MHz and 800 MHz.
                  The governor "ondemand" may decide which speed to use
                  within this range.
  current CPU frequency is 800 MHz (asserted by call to hardware).

is the output in bash, /etc/cpufreqd.conf is set, governor "ondemand" is set 
in conf.d/cpufrequtils.

Problems are: while compiling CPU is still on 800Mhz and when i cut ac, 
laptopmode is still disabled and no govenor is changed or freq.
