The klaptopdaemon stuff works reasonably well if you are a KDE person. Use the Control Center to configure the power management. Enable the ACPI helper (ignoring the bogus warning about the app having changed since compilation that has always been there), then in the same set of property pages you can define the throttling and clock rate changes to happen when you are on AC or on battery automagically.
Perhaps somebody else can give advice if you are a gnome person. -Andy
