From what I've read, all recent Apple laptops start up at reduced speed. rob U are right, this a power manegement feature... to save the batterie And u can alse use the same frequency in Macos X when u set the reduce speed feature in power menagment But i not sure if the apple profiler will tell u the real speed. And I dont know any software that will do so, or any BSD command, maybe someone else will know Serge

Are there any other laptop users that out there that can comment? I have a Titanium 1Ghz (november 02 version)... The 12 inch seems to be very different from mine, sure Apple have to change the motherboard to fit in the smaller case, and also to support the DDR... Hope for u that the upgrade won't be long Serge

I updated to this, but /proc/cpufreq is still not there. Could there be some kind of boot option I'm missing? I checked for any relavent modules, but didn't find any. FYI: I was reading http://www.brodo.de/cpufreq/interface.html and it mentioned that CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_PROC_INTF might need turned on. However, this wouldn't explain why some people have gotten it to work. rob

Seems to work well I test it yesterday...

Re: Opinions on 700MB ISOs?
The only thing for me... is I do not have any CDRW 700MB so... il will need to find one... or maybe burn on a DVD-RW Serge Blondin Stew Benedict wrote: Any opinions on using 700MB ISOs? The main distro took a fair amount of heat for this, but it would be one way to get more on your ISOs. Thx, Stew Benedict

And btw why The option CPU_FREQ is disable in the benh kernel... I read that is the option that provide controle for the power saving cpu 667mhz I didn't really pay much attention to that option. My original approach was to try and mimic the Mandrake config as much as possible. I'm going to do another benh build real-soon-now(tm) - I can try turning that on. Stew Benedict Thanks send a mail when the new Kernel will be ready ... I will try it... Serge Blondin
