It looks like this plugin still shows P-states wich is enough for me. But I haven't tried restart it yet. And also haven't tried to remerge x11-plugins/gkrellm-cpufreq. It probably won't wich is sad. I personally don't need user-changing of the governor, kernel default ondemand governor is OK for me. I just need to see P-states in real-time in gkrellm.
