Joel,

it seems that your setup is not using the nforce2 cpufreq driver, but the powernow-k8 driver - which is correct, I think, since the Athlon64 X2 supports PowerNow. (My Athlon XP does not)

So I guess your problem is a different one with similar symptoms only. I noticed that I also have the message "Clocksource tsc unstable (delta = -272825285 ns)" in my syslog, but I don't know what it means (Maybe someone else can clarify this?)

However, I have published the modified powernowd package to my ppa: https://launchpad.net/~hanno-stock/+archive
You can try it and see whether it fixes your issues as well.
