I definitely think we need a gui to add more functionality there. I
have remove cpuspeed from boot and the acpi modules from rc.sysinit
and replaced them with scripts in that directory. It seems a shame
that the infrastructure was added and nothing changed to take
advantage of it.
That's because it's a crap infrastructure. :)
Seriously, acpi modules should be autoloaded based on DMI and ACPI
table matching (almost done), and the governors should probably be
built-in (as userspace is generally wrong.)
