For what it's worth, my problem went away (I think) when I replaced my faulty AC adapter that didn't charge the battery. Although it seems I have kept the following in /etc/rc.local anyway:
echo 20 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/ondemand/up_threshold
echo 20 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/cpufreq/ondemand/up_threshold

@sotirovlyu: I also mostly wasn't able to change the clock speed forcefully, but also bumped into such stuff as GNOME's CPU speed applet being quite broken... but still, not even echoing to /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/scaling_cur_freq (if I recall the path correctly) worked all the time.
