Yes, I tried that but that still shows the original frequency. So 
here's what my scaling_setspeed looks like:

root@variance:/# more 
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_setspeed
800000

And here's my /proc/cpuinfo:

root@variance:/usr/src/linux-2.6.0# more /proc/cpuinfo

vendor_id       : GenuineIntel

I don't see an 800 here.. I'm pretty sure the frequency has been 
scaled down since my fan doesn't come on that often now.. or could 
it be that the machine is fooled into thinking that the freq. is 800 
(and hence the reduced fan activity) but it's still actually at 
1400? That would be scary and might result in failures I guess...
