Bug Description

Current version of laptop-mode-tools (1.11) which is in dapper has a bug regarding cpu governor.
line 606 of /usr/sbin/laptop_mode is:
echo $THIS_GOVERNOR > $THISCPU/cpufreq/scaling_governor
but should be:
echo $THIS_CPU_GOVERNOR > $THISCPU/cpufreq/scaling_governor

This bug avoid using scalling CPU governor with laptop-mode-tools.

BTW, why version 1.11? In debian is 1.30 it has many bug fixes.
