I think that the bug is caused by changes in the clocksource between kernels and the powernow-k8 module.
One time I tested booting the xen flavour of the linux kernel ( the 2.6.32-5-xen-686 ) and the problem dissapeared, the net worked at full speed but there was no cpu scaling. Now, I boot the kernel with the clocksource=jiffies option and the powersaved daemon to do the frequency scaling, the net works al full speed and the notebook is less hot, and me happier. Thanks.
