This problem isn't limited to nforce chipsets. My Thinkpad A22p (1GHzP3 440BX chipset) laptop has the same problem. While running 7.10 the CPU freq throttling worked correctly without requiring any configuration changes. However, when I upgraded to 8.04 the CPU began to run at full speed (1000MHz

The command sequence in the comment above works, until the laptop changes power states due to disconnecting the AC adapter. All power state changes seem to trigger this problem, until the cpufreq-selector and powernowd -q commands are re-run. -- [hardy] Regression: powernowd no longer works wit

Hanno Stock, After a fresh system start "cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_driver" returns speedstep- smi. Running /etc/init.d/powernowd stop; cpufreq-selector -g userspace; powernowd -q (as root) returns the laptop to 7.10 style CPU freq scaling (two steps 700/1000 MHz). It seems
