Strange. Could you please post the output from
cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_available_frequencies
If there is only two frequencies, it's likely a bug in ACPI firmware.
In this case,
wget ftp://ftp.kernel.org//pub/linux/kernel/people/lenb/acpi/utils/pmtools-20031210.tar.bz2
tar xjvfp pmtools-20031210.tar.bz2
cd pmtools-20031210/acpidmp
make
sudo ./acpidmp > acpidmp.out
bzip2 acpidmp.out
Then mail me (privately, due to the size of this file)
the acpidmp.out.bz2 (or better give a link to http or ftp servers)
