Thank you Michael :) there also is at least one self-interested aspect. Maybe it will be noticeable by the electricity bill. For real-time usage it perhaps is an advantage to set the scaling to 'Performance', but while checking emails etc. it seems to be better to set the scaling to 'Ondemand'. For KDE there's a tool called 'kpowersafe' in the repositories, but I still have to check if it's fine for 64 Studio 3.0-beta3. I guess for other 'Desktops' like Ion2, Fluxbox etc. we don't need a solution, because I guess we only will run them to reduce load on real-time usage.
