I won't have access to the machine for about a week, I will try and test the new package then.

Booting with 3.19 would result in the system being very sluggish. 'cpupower frequency-info' would report that the CPU was running at around 400mhz, as would 'cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/scaling_cur_freq'. The CPUs would remain around 400mhz regardless of load. This was using the intel_pstate driver and the powersave governor. Switching to the performance governor had no effect. Using the acpi- cpufreq driver also had no effect, the system was still sluggish even though the reported frequencies in /sys/devices/. Eventually I tracked it down to the original install having had the intel_microcode package installed at some point. Once I removed this then the CPU frequencies scaled correctly with load. FYI the particular version installed was intel-microcode/trusty-updates,now 2.20140624-t-1ubuntu2 amd64.
