G'day all

(long story omitted) I'm trying to install (any, but tried various ubuntu and 
SuSE) on my mac.

All easy (but the EFI bios makes a compelling case to dual boot, not single 
boot)
[The efi uses hard disk and os utils to set bios stuff]

Running OSX the freq is 2.7G and my quad core runs cool.

On the two distros I tried freq gets throttled to 1.6, 2.2 and 2.7G
Idle at 1.6 and the machine gets HOT

OSX does use full freq, so must use long sleeps, or sleep some cores and run 
only one to keep temp down.

Does anybody know where I could find info on what and how

Thanks
