Btw, I'm on linux because I can control the system at each level, if I 
wanted a dumb (and locked) ready-to-use system I'd go on a mac.

I use to perform some heavy calculation sometimes that raise the system 
temperature. Then I have to limit the frequency in order to avoid 
overheating. In addition I don't see why I have to open the systemsettings 
just to switch powersaving profile. The fact that there is nothing like 
kpowersave in kde4 is a severe regression, imho.
