I don't know about the "Debian Way" but my preferred package is
'powernowd' which, despite its name, works very well with the Pentium M
CPU in my T41. It also works well with the Pentium III in my T23. IT
seems to do a good job of managing the demand governor and I don't
recall having to do anything special for it to work.
