It does work for me, i have these directories: 
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/cpufreq/

$ grep "model name" /proc/cpuinfo
model name      : AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual-Core Processor TK-55
model name      : AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual-Core Processor TK-55

$ uname -a
Linux terminaldelmal 2.6.26-1-amd64 #1 SMP Sat Jan 10 17:57:00 UTC 2009 x86_64 GNU/Linux

$ grep power /proc/cpuinfo 
power management: ts fid vid ttp tm stc
power management: ts fid vid ttp tm stc

Also, on my /etc/modules, i have these:

cpufreq_conservative
cpufreq_ondemand
cpufreq_powersave
cpufreq_stats
cpufreq_userspace

And these too:

k8temp
powernow-k8

Also, just in case, i have this in my /etc/rc.local

echo conservative > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor

Hope it helps.
