Open the file /etc/rc.d/rc.local with e.g. gedit, mousepad, ...:

$ su
# gedit /etc/rc.d/rc.local

At the end of the file paste this:

/sbin/modprobe cpufreq_ondemand
#/sbin/modprobe powernow_k8     # For dla AMD64, Sempron 64, Opteron 64 (Cool'n'Quiet)
#/sbin/modprobe powernow_k7    # For mobile Athlon XP and Sempron
#/sbin/modprobe speedstep-centrino  # For Intel centrino, Core Duo, Pentium M
/sbin/modprobe cpufreq_ondemand
echo "ondemand" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor

Now delete the first (left) character # in your CPU row. For further information.

# reboot

After the reboot you can check whether all is OK.

$ cat /proc/cpuinfo

or

$ dmesg | grep powernow

or

$ su
# watch -n 1 cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/cpuinfo_cur_freq
