PlasmaFreq
Source (link to git-repo or to original if based on someone elses unmodified work): Add the source-code for this project on opencode.net
PlasmaFreq is a plasmoid written in Python for changing CPU frequency scaling modes aka governors from Plasma desktop.
PlasmaFreq doesnt require cpufreq-selector or cpufrequtils to be installed. It doesnt require any file permission changes either, it prompts for password when changing the governor (kdesudo). It also detects changes in current governor and always shows the governor that is currently used.
PlasmaFreq is HIGHLY EXPERIEMENTAL. Its not perfectly coded (at least yet :) so there might be some gliches. Its requires a lot of testing with many types of hardware (governors may depend on motherboard, processor etc.) It misses a lot of features, but those will ship in future versions :)
And as an acknowledgement: PlasmaFreq is NOT a CPU overclocking tool. Go and check your BIOS for that.
TODO:
- KAuth instead of executing kdesudo
- Allow user to define core frequency manually
- Translation support
- Multiprocessor support (multicore is already supported)
- LOTS of testing
Any comments, requests, suggestions, bug reports and help are warmly welcome :-)

v0.1a2 (23 August 2011)
+ Added support for multicore processors when each core can have different governor
! Fixed some weird layout problems
v0.1a (21 August 2011)
+ Possibility to change governor

ive had a few issues while installing the 0.1a2 version.
Another thing is i can select whatever i want. It wont change anything )=
Maybe its worth looking at the source of cpufreq-selector.
It can't be magic to get this done o.0
Quickly translatet:
analysing CPU 0:
Driver: powernow-k8
CPUs with the same freqency : 0
Maxi duration of switching: 1000 ns.
possible frequencys: 2.20 GHz, 1.10 GHz
possible governors: conservative, ondemand, powersave, userspace, performance
Taktic: Frequency between 1.10 GHz und 2.20 GHz.
governor "ondemand" can decide freely
Freq now is 1.10 GHz.
