Looking for a cpufreq problem, namely in /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq I have:
- scaling_max_freq < cpuinfo_max_freq - scaling_max_freq is not in the list of available frequencies $> cat scaling_available_frequencies 1391439 1192662 1060144 927626 662590 $> cat scaling_governor cpuinfo_max_freq scaling_max_freq cpuinfo_cur_freq performance 1391439 1050000 927626 The bug https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.15/+bug/36014 points here, and I found that after a $> cat /proc/cpuinfo processor : 0 vendor_id : AuthenticAMD cpu family : 6 model : 8 model name : mobile AMD Athlon(tm) XP 1600+ stepping : 0 cpu MHz : 662.590 cache size : 256 KB fdiv_bug : no hlt_bug : no f00f_bug : no coma_bug : no fpu : yes fpu_exception : yes cpuid level : 1 wp : yes flags : fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 sep mtrr pge mca cmov pat pse36 mmx fxsr sse syscall mp mmxext 3dnowext 3dnow up ts fid vid bogomips : 1325.90 clflush size : 32 I got the information on the current speed not in the maximum speed. In previous Linux Distros, namely FC5 running 2.6.19, there was no problem at all with cpufreq or whatsoever, and I could get the most of my Athlon XP 1600+, ie 1391439 Hz. -- /proc/cpuinfo reports wrong frequeny for AMD Athlon XP 3000+ https://launchpad.net/bugs/71772 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
