Not a heck of a lot more, but a bit more.

[jwilson@xeus ~]$ cat sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_driver
acpi-cpufreq
[jwilson@xeus ~]$ cat
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_available_frequencies
2660000 2128000 1596000

FYI, unless I'm mistaken, the speedstep-centrino driver is supposed to
be getting deprecated in favor of acpi-cpufreq.
