BTW, will g-p-m be completely control switching itself or will it simply
chose the governor to be used by the kernel? Or would both be possible?

The reasons why I'm asking: From what I have heard and seen on LKML I
got the *impression* (maybe that's wrong) that in-kernel governor seems
to be the far better choice for modern CPUs.

P.S.: I'd further say the cpufreq stuff should be enabled early in the
boot-process -- gdm seems quite late for me.
