Did you put those two commands in /etc/rc.local (so that they're executed each time the machine boots) ?

Regarding the memory clock, the script does look for the "current memory clock" line and does nothing if the line isn't there. If you want to display the memory frequency, you can edit the main.js file again, go to line 197 and replace "current m" by "default m".

Could you try the following :
- in kwrite, open ~/.kde/share/apps/plasma/plasmoids/radeon-pm/contents/code/main.js
- comment the following lines out (by putting // at the beginning of each of them) : 40, 41, 46, 47
- save, close editor, log out and back in

I'm not sure about cpufreq (isn't it dedicated to cpu power management ?).
Systemd being an init replacement, I don't think it would be of use here (unless you want a daemon that scales the frequencies based on various conditions, but this is way beyond the scope of this simple applet).
About the "pseudo-files" this applet writes to, they are (but my knowledge might not be so up-to-date) the only userspace interface to access radeon power management. Even a power management daemon would need to use this interface (and thus write to the files).
Take care

mount -t debugfs none /sys/kernel/debug
Then you must find the radeon_pm_info file and paste the resulting path in the corresponding setting :
find /sys/kernel/debug -name radeon_pm_info
About the KDE downloader, I admit I haven't tested this. I'll have a look at it when I'm back from my vacations.

Quand au problème de plantage lors de l'ouverture des réglages, je n'arrive pas à le reproduire (quel que soit le mode sélectionné).
Sinon, le pilote radeonHD est obsolète. Toutes les cartes ATI/AMD utilisent maintenant le pilote radeon, récentes comme anciennes.

Just in case, did you install the plasmoid as root ? If you did, you shouldn't have, since the default behaviour of plasmapkg is to use the user's profile for installation (meaning that the plasmoid would have been installed in root's profile).
Aside from this, since I can't reproduce it, I have to admit I'm out of ideas. - May 24 2011

When adding it to the desktop though, only 1.3 seems to work. 1.4 doesn't (I'm going to investigate that).

On the other hand, back when I used it, the one thing that seemed to work right was power management, so I'm not sure that a fglrx-aware plasmoid would be that useful.
If you want to fiddle with frequencies, there's always this utility (although it's not a plasmoid) :

You can use this command to check if the plasmoid is installed :
plasmapkg --list | grep radeon-pm
You can also check that everything is in place by running this command :
find $HOME/.kde -name radeon-pm -exec ls -lR '{}' \;
I'm now downloading Mepis. I'll keep you posted if I find out why it doesn't show up for you.

BTW, the plasmoid should appear in the "System Information" category.

Also, just in case (but you likely have already checked this), maybe you have a /sys/class/drm/card1 (or 2) directory ? - Mar 23 2011

Regarding the low power mode, on my laptop it seems to have the same effect as the mid profile (which is another reason why I didn't bother with the low profile in the first place). - Mar 14 2011

plasmapkg -t plasmoid -i radeon-pm.plasmoid
If you confirm it works for you, I will edit the installation procedure.

I've uploaded a new version. Let's hope there aren't other differences. - Mar 11 2011

- copy the radeon-pm.plasmoid file to an empty dir
- unzip radeon-pm.plasmoid
- edit file contents/code/main.js, go to line 31 and add the following instructions :
print(plasmoid.activeConfig); print(deviceUrl);
- save, quit editor and launch the modified plasmoid with this command line :
plasmoidviewer PATH-TO-DIR-WHERE-YOU-UNZIPPED-THE-PLASMOID
- what's the terminal output ? - Mar 11 2011

Sadly, I don't have the kind of time that would be required to really delve into the plasma codebase and see if it's possible to solve the problem at its source, whereas this small applet was easy enough to write - May 15 2010
