I've now tried both as modules, and compiled in, /proc/cpuinfo works
niether report correctly.

yes, that is the program i spoke of.  However, like i said, when
/proc/cpuinfo is reporting wrong, my system works it's way back to full
speed even though powersave is in the /sys scaling_governor.

It will report the changed speed (clockdown to 1.2ghz) for about 10
seconds, and then will start to report again at 2.4ghz even though the
setting haddn't changed.
