Thanks for that.
I should have explained my situation more specifically, sorry about that!

So I have a KDE 4.4 install, but the Power Manager says that I don't
have support for CPU stepping.

However, I am loading acpi-cpufreq and managers, cpufreq_ondemand
cpufreq_powersave.

I also have cpufrequtils installed and on the command line I can
modify it _as root_.


I.e. sudo cpufreq -s -f 1000 -g ondemand

But if I run it as my regular user, I don't have permission. I'm
_assuming_ that this is the reason that KDE doesn't support CPU
scaling..
