This may be one cause of extra battery drain, ideal (xlv) kernel has trouble to put wlan chip into power save mode, as dmesg contains this message repeated:
wl1251: ERROR Power save entry failed, giving up
Also based on BatteryGraph data idle power usage is at least 2x than it was with previous kernel!

Allowing user space to change the vsel column of the mpu table is trivial. It also sounds better to me than having predefined tables in the kernel. The user space program can have those tables. This patch should do the trick:
Disabling specific frequencies might not be as easy. I think that the easiest way is to add a scaling_allowed_frequencies to generic cpufreq code, rather than hacking ARM specific code.

I advice putting the /etc/pmconfig on default before you settle at a speed. To try out different mhz before making them permanent in /etc/cinfig use this:
root
echo 250000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_min_freq
echo 599000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq
And read this thread: http://wiki.maemo.org/Overclocking

is it not already overclocked??
Download conky, it will tell you the stats..
btw, echo 250mhz min does not work with ideal kernel

idle /overnight, icq on, mail retrieval every 30 minutes/ ... with titans xlv kernel, it eats about 20 percent ... weird
looking forward to seeing that "promised" titans kernel with customazable voltage anyway
