Well, I've done what I can but I'm really no expert on this stuff.
That's why I wrote to this list, which seems to be populated by _many_
very knowledgeable people.

I installed the cpufreq-utils package.
The result of `cpufreq-info' is:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# cpufreq-info
cpufrequtils 002: cpufreq-info (C) Dominik Brodowski 2004-2006
Report errors and bugs to [EMAIL PROTECTED], please.
analyzing CPU 0:
no or unknown cpufreq driver is active on this CPU
analyzing CPU 1:
no or unknown cpufreq driver is active on this CPU
analyzing CPU 2:
no or unknown cpufreq driver is active on this CPU
analyzing CPU 3:
no or unknown cpufreq driver is active on this CPU
Also /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu{0,1,2,3}/cpufreq/ does not exist on
this system. I don't know much about cpufreq adjustments. Should I
be looking elsewhere? Note that this is a desktop workstation. Will
the cpufreq (actually there are four CPUs in two dual-core units)
change on such a machine?
If you or others wouldn't mind reading my whole original post (it's
not _that_ long :-) maybe some other ideas might occur. Thanks.
