to activate :

open the profile you are using with any text editor and change the line

GOVERNOR=ondemand
to
GOVERNOR=conservative

and reload the profile with
kernel-config load $yourprofile
Well that depends.
If you're always on frequencies above 500MHz, i.e if you set kernel-config 500 1150 then the conservative governor is best to use. However, it is not recommended to set the conservative governor if you're starting from 250.
