Hi,

 if 

        cat /proc/frontsidebus

 gives you: "No such file or directory" you will not have one....
 
 :)  <------ VERY big smiley ! ;)



 I dont know what CPU is running for you, but some cupper-wire tricks
 only influence the multiplikator and this may (or may not) affect
 the cpuinfo entries....dont know for sure...I only mention this to
 keep you attention on the fact the "nothing happens" may result in
 "nothing happens anymore" when/if the CPU is internally near core
 melt in cpuinfo goes on holidays....

 Keep hacking!
