Can you check whether or not you were also using p4-clockmode with the
last kernel that did show correct values? The same grep command should
show this.

It would also help to know which kernel version was the last working one.
You mentioned 2.6.26, but with some uncertainty. Can you check for 2.6.26
and possibly for 2.6.27?

Note that p4-clockmode does not really help with power saving, but only
with thermal management (prevention of overheating). Possibly the
speedstep or acpi-cpufreq modules will work better for you, but it can
also be they don't support your processor.
That does not mean this issue should not be looked into of course.
