Wonderful, hopefully it will make it's way into powerd.
But I haven't testet because measuring the throttling of my P3-m showed that 
it saves exactly nothing (primary measured, 14.00W at 500MHz, 14.00W@"62"MHz). 
So since it's old SpeedStep wich only proviedes two 
frequencies/voltages "wakeup" is 100% with throttling disabled.
It's the most sutable way for me now but I'll love to have the -u feature when 
I'll have an EST machine.

Thanks,
