powerd is doing nothing?

The problem is not powerd but cpufreq.  While cpufreq appears to work 
well on my Athlon X2, it has never worked on any of my Core2Duo or 
Core-based Xeon servers.

This is a great shame as these newer Intel chips have the capability to 
clock up and down very quickly and seamlessly.

Who can fix the cpufreq driver? I think it simply hasn't been updated 
with the latest data from Intel.
