Well, the script is quite simple, it only works in Gnome (a
more system-wide script would have to be run as superuser and I just
couldn't be bothered to type in my root password every time I wanted
to change CPU governor):
This is what sudo is for - one just configures it to allow anyone to
run it as root. Another possibility is to make it suid root. I
suppose, though, that either of these techniques might be security
risks, if the script is buggy / insufficiently secure and a malicious
user manages to run it.
