Drat. It looks like powernowd wasn't the sole cause of your problems. It's
probably unwise to uninstall powernowd though. There's nothing the coders of
powernowd can do about because their program is just a daemon that asks the
kernel to change the speed of the CPU. There's nothing the kernel developers
can do because they don't have the source to the NVIDIA binary drivers. If
there is a problem with CPU scaling and the NVIDIA binary drivers the only
people who can explain where the problem lies and how to fix it are NVIDIA as
they are the only ones with the source code to their driver. That's the way it
goes with binary only drivers...
As for whether things are any better with nvidia-glx-new... I don't
know. In theory your card is supported so if you might be able to try
those drivers out (PS I suspect your inability to revert back to the
nvidia-glx driver last time was because of Bug #106217 )...
