I do not know how that code works. All the PowerPC machines I have ever seen or heard off report BogoMIPS as 2x clock in MHz. So my guess is that it is running at 440 and lying to you, possibly the ROM thing you suggest. I have "upgraded" by replacing the processor and I get the correct clock and 2x for bogomips. Is the upgrade card the kind where you actually replace the processor ? The other thing to try is a simple benchmark program and see how many FLOPS you get --> if more than 200 MFLOPS (you will need a simple benchmark and "-O3" to compile) then it must be the 440. [On an intel you can do better than the clock using SSE instructions] BTW machines often feel slow when all it is is an unaccelerated graphics card... So if you are suspicious you are not getting everything then try running something without X to see how fast it is, or work on accelerating the X server. HTH, Q.
