So if 'cat /proc/cpu/info' reports a 1200 Mhz cpu, instead of 1533 Mhz, you're system is mis-configured in bios, or you don't have an 1800+.
I bow to your fart superior knowledge of hardware. Mine is of course not a laptop.

While the main equipement is,
MSI K7t266 Pro2 , MS-6380 v2,x ATX Mainboard, based on VIA ApolloKT266A, chipsets,(VT8366A & VT8233),
Athlon XPPR1800+(palomino) processor,
512MB DDR PC2100 PC266 Visual Inspection of memory chip reveals, Korea 0152 M368L6423CTL-CBO fitted with 2x8 SAMSUNG 151 K4H560838C-TCBO chips
so by my reconning something is out somewhere. Would you not agree ?
OK, well lets leave the compile asside a moment.
If you're intent on recompiling the kernel for K7, I can tell you exactly how to do it .... but you won't see any measurable performance increase in doin so. Believe, I've tried too many times to prove my self wrong on that. Overclocking the XP a little, and usin very low'n fast ram timings will do far more than compiling for K7. Either can cause a loss of system stability tho. On that, I have proved myself too often right ;>
