Root overclocking incredible?

can someone give a brief explanation as to what a 'kernal' is?
I rooted my Dinc. I bought setCPU. I have several different profiles set up and what-not, and it even tells me when my battery drops below 50% that it's changing to my <50% profile, however, the MAX and MIN green bars on the main page of the setCPU app never really display what the profile says. my screen looks roughly like this:


576 MHz
scaling ondemand
576 max 576 min

but the scales underneath say Max: 998400 Min: 998400.


also, can someone explain the difference between userspace, ondemand, and performance?

Should I not have downloaded this app yet? do I need to wait for some 'kernal' before this app will work properly? thanks in advance for any help.
