[SOLVED] acpi-cpufreq wont start at boot

Hi, im trying to get CPU frequency scalling working on my laptop. It seems that acpi-cpufreq wont start if I add it to my DAEMONS list like this:

DAEMONS=(syslog-ng netfs crond dbus networkmanager !laptop-mode acpi-cpufreq gdm)

but when after i login and open up a terminal, I can run

sudo modeprobe acpi-cpufreq

and it starts up just fine!

Why is this? It seems like it should be the same whether i start it up after loging in or add it to the daemons list. please help as this is really annoying!

If you need any more data/info just let me know.

It's a module not a daemon.

Just edit your first post in the thread.  You can edit the title from there.
