That's very strange. I'm willing to chalk up my own problem to having removed the symlink at some point, since no one else has confirmed it. I've restored the symlink and fully expect it to work now.

(to ubuntu-devel) I discovered on one of my systems (upgraded since forever) that /etc/rc2.d/S20powernowd was missing, resulting in the cpufreq scaling governor failing to be set to ondemand by default: https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/intrepid/+source/powernowd/+bug/262567 I don't remember doing this manually, and at least one other person has reported this symlink missing.
