Odd; I have a similar processor and it has est and uses the 
speedstep-centrino driver. But I am using an old kernel (2.6.5) and the 
flag detection has changed since then.

It makes the processor slower but only reduces power consumption 
slightly, making the processor less power-efficient. You probably don't 
want your processor to be less efficient.
