I always let it boot with the default gov (performance), then use cpufreq-set to change it. acpi_pm+performance behaves like tsc+performance, which works When switching from tsc+performance to (tsc+)ondemand, acpi_pm gets used because of the unstable tsc (of course, since we changed frequency and the cpu does NOT have constant_tsc), so it's becoming acpi_pm+ondemand naturally. Switching from acpi_pm+performance to acpi_pm+ondemand also locks up after a few minutes.
