I can report the same problem. I used to cat /proc/sys/cpuinfo and see 1000MHz on both cores unless I ran burnK7... Then it would jump to 2200 like it was supposed to. Setting in gnome to "Based on processor load" is the same as "Always maximum speed"

Setting it at "Max power saving" keeps it at 1000 but I will have to stay there until this problem is fixed as this computer is lightly loaded most of the time and on 24/7(I would love to try the debdiff, but not sure where and how to apply it (??/etc/init.d/powernowd???) I have a Nforce2 board but I don't have the problems others state with:
>> /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_available_frequencies: No such file or directory

I have:
2200000 2000000 1800000 1000000
in there...

Let me know if I can help in any way.
