    Would anybody provide a short description of which one of these frequency
    scaling packages (powernowd, cpudyn, cpufreqd) is "better"?

    I find it confusing to have them all in Debian. Their descriptions don't
    always help much discerning which one is better for the job (apart from
    powernowd's description saying that it is simpler than cpufreqd and
    cpudyn).

    Also, which one integrates better with laptop-mode? I'm thinking of using
    laptop-mode even for my i386 Desktop (since I can't stand the noise of its
    HD).

    Thanks for sharing any experiences, Rogério Brito.
