I don't seem to have that service (in lenny and wheezy I've got
"cpufrequtils" instead) but if I were you, I'd take a look into these two
files:
/usr/share/doc/cpufreqd/README.Debian
/etc/default/cpufreqd
Maybe is that you need to configure something :-?

"powernow-k8" insetad, right? Is it loaded?
