uhm. i use powernow too, with my powerbook. i launch it with this command (only into a root terminal):

powernow -v -m 2


This command (i think) set the passive mode and visualize the current setting, 0only if the CPU is supported by powernow (list, it's right?)

There are 4 modes: aggressive, passive, sine, and another one but i don't understand all. See "man powernowd" for all option.

by the way, if i close the root terminal, powernow NOT EXEC in background.
Sometimes powernowd not work. The gnome frequency monitor detect 
that the frequency is high. boh??

best regards
