CPU frequency and custom kernel

2013-11-21 Thread Sean Alexandre
I've built my own kernel, but the CPU runs faster (hotter, more fan noise, etc.) I can't figure out why it's faster. Everything I've checked is the same between the two kernels. If I boot to the Debian provided kernel the CPU runs at 800 MHz, but if I boot to my custom kernel it runs at 1.8 GHz. (

I've got two Debian Wheezy machines. One can connect to my cable modem fine, and gets an IP address. The other can't. They're both configured the same. Any ideas why this might be? The log message I get on the machine that doesn't work is: Aug 7 06:29:26 moose dhclient: No DHCPOFFERS received. T
