Hi, folks!
I do have a ASUS P5PE Motherboard with Intel Pentium IV 3Ghz HT running
OpenSolaris 2008.05.
Right now everything is correctly configured (video, sound, network and so on),
but the processor speed is stuck at 3Ghz. This is very annoying because
processor is getting hot, sound is increasing and coolers never stop, even when
machine is doing nothing.
I saw OpenSolaris support Intel Speedstep on Pentium IV processors, but appear
not be working with my processor. The problem can be the configuration (I have
configured the BIOS to allow Operating System to control CPU speed)?
The result of kstat is:
$ kstat -m cpu_info -s supported_frequencies_Hz
module: cpu_info instance: 0
name: cpu_info0 class: misc
supported_frequencies_Hz 3000135577
module: cpu_info instance: 1
name: cpu_info1 class: misc
supported_frequencies_Hz 3000135577
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
So, appear OpenSolaris could not recognize the processor.
The "cpu_info" returns:
$ kstat -m cpu_info
module: cpu_info instance: 0
