I run vmworkstation.  I do not want my desktop to use ondemand.

cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_available_governors
userspace conservative ondemand powersave performance

when I edit /etc/init.d./cpufrequtils

.......snip
# Set ENABLE to "true" to let the script run at boot time.
#
# eg:    ENABLE="true"
#    GOVERNOR="ondemand"
#    MAX_SPEED=1000
#    MIN_SPEED=500

ENABLE="true"
GOVERNOR="ondemand"
MAX_SPEED="0"
MIN_SPEED="0"
....................snip.............

and have it say GOVERNOR="performance"

it will not come up from a boot that way. I will still have cpu frequency scaling running. I have to run /etc/init.d/cpufrequtils from the cli, and yet it IS in the rc.d scripts.

Anybody knows what is going on here?

Perhaps a better option for me would be to use userspace and manually set the freq (full when running vms, slower when not needed) and that way I will not always be sucking down the juice. What would a good userspace tool be? dual core amd cpus.
