[SOLVED] Cpufreq not loading after reboot

Question

I followed wiki on this ,but after reboot cpufreq is not loading from /etc/rc.conf as module
This is message on boot
:: Setting cpufreq governing rules , cpu 0 1wrong, unknown or unhandled CPU?
Error setting new values. Common errors:eq/scaling_available_governors: No such - Do you have proper administration rights? (super-user?)
- Is the governor you requested available and modprobed?
- Trying to set an invalid policy?
- Trying to set a specific frequency, but userspace governor is not available,
for example because of hardware which cannot be set to a specific frequency
or because the userspace governor isn't loaded?
But if I do a modprobe acpi-cpufreq got this
[root@laptop ~]# modprobe acpi-cpufreq
[root@laptop ~]# /etc/rc.d/cpufreq start
:: Setting cpufreq governing rules , cpu 0 1 [DONE]
This is a /etc/rc.conf/cpufreq
#configuration for cpufreq control
# valid governors:
# ondemand, performance, powersave,
# conservative, userspace
governor="ondemand"
# limit frequency range (optional)
# valid suffixes: Hz, kHz (default), MHz, GHz, THz
min_freq="800MHz"
max_freq="2.01GHz"
# use freq to set up the exact cpu frequency using it with userspace governor
#freq=
Similar happens when I want to load governors as modules.
Laptop is acer with C2D T5800 and min and max values are  from cpufreq-info.
Can this be solved?
Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

Here it is without modprobe acpi-cpufreq
[root@laptop ~]# cpufreq-info
cpufrequtils 007: cpufreq-info (C) Dominik Brodowski 2004-2009
Report errors and bugs to [email protected], please.
analyzing CPU 0:
no or unknown cpufreq driver is active on this CPU
maximum transition latency: 0.00 ms.
analyzing CPU 1:
no or unknown cpufreq driver is active on this CPU
maximum transition latency: 0.00 ms.
And with modprobe acpi-cpufreq
[root@laptop ~]# modprobe acpi-cpufreq
[root@laptop ~]# cpufreq-info
cpufrequtils 007: cpufreq-info (C) Dominik Brodowski 2004-2009

analyzing CPU 0:
driver: acpi-cpufreq
CPUs which run at the same hardware frequency: 0 1
CPUs which need to have their frequency coordinated by software: 0
maximum transition latency: 10.0 us.
hardware limits: 800 MHz - 2.00 GHz
available frequency steps: 2.00 GHz, 1.60 GHz, 1.20 GHz, 800 MHz
available cpufreq governors: ondemand, performance
current policy: frequency should be within 800 MHz and 2.00 GHz.
The governor "performance" may decide which speed to use
within this range.
current CPU frequency is 2.00 GHz (asserted by call to hardware).
