I think problem is really important. In windows you can easily fix bad scaling behaviour by using special software. This is not the case in linux. You have to have patched kernel. I thing ubuntu should fix this problem. I'm not sure if this is problem just for few notebooks. Many people could simply miss this bug, not everyone looks at frequency scaling applet for example. I remember, that for very long time many distors supported 2.4 and 2.6 kernels due to changes in new line of kernels. Maybe ubuntu could do the same - keep kernels below 2.6.20 for people with old notebooks?
