Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: linux-image

After the startup, cpu-scaling is not working. The frequency is always
at 800MHz.

After these 2 steps cpu-scaling is working normally.
- sudo modprobe acpi
FATAL: Error inserting acpi_cpufreq (/lib/modules/2.6.24-17-generic/kernel/arch/x86/kernel/cpu/cpufreq/acpi-cpufreq.ko): Device or resource busy
- Switch on battery and go back with power supply. I have a laptop.

This workaround is not user friendly.

/etc/modules :
...
cpufreq_conservative
cpufreq_ondemand
cpufreq_powersave
cpufreq_stats
cpufreq_userspace
powernow-k8

powernowd is no more installed.
