No, the ondemand CPU scaling behaves the same way both in battery and in AC mode - i.e. it doesn't work correctly.

It's not only about the output of cpufreq-info (or some system values in /proc). Sometimes it shows "hardware limits: 800 MHz - 2.00 GHz", sometimes "hardware limits: 800 MHz - 800 MHz", may be there is a pattern, but i didn't examine much when what it shows. Important is that in either case CPU speed is around 800MHz with some strange jumps to higher values but not related to load.
