Did anyone ever reach resolution on this, because I'm seeing similar symptoms on my Inspiron 8200. My P4 1600 boots at and stays at 1200, even with the throttling disabled in the BIOS when not on battery power. I've compiled my kernel without APM, and in /boot/device.hints the hint.apm.0.disabled sysctl is set to 1, so there shouldn't be any APM interference.
