Why Ondemand Policy is no more remembered on reboot with this new version? It is now always set to Performance on reboot. Or should i blame the new kernel (2.6.28.9)? It worked before a few days and updates ago.

System: Ubuntu 9.04 Alpha 6 (all updates) for AMD64, AMD LE-1640 64bit single core processor.

Greetings

It should actually stay on perfomance for the boot time then switch back
to the policy setting.
it is done on purpose, I think to speedup the boot
