Mine is a 4400 and has the following steps:
pabi@myetch:~$ cpufreq-info
cpufrequtils 002: cpufreq-info (C) Dominik Brodowski 2004-2006
Report errors and bugs to linux@brodo.de, please.
analyzing CPU 0:
driver: powernow-k8
CPUs which need to switch frequency at the same time: 0 1
hardware limits: 1000 MHz - 2.20 GHz
available frequency steps: 2.20 GHz, 2.00 GHz, 1.80 GHz, 1000 MHz
available cpufreq governors: userspace, powersave, ondemand,
conservative, performance current policy: frequency should be within
1000 MHz and 2.20 GHz. The governor "ondemand" may decide which speed
to use within this range.
current CPU frequency is 1000 MHz.
analyzing CPU 1:
driver: powernow-k8
CPUs which need to switch frequency at the same time: 0 1
hardware limits: 1000 MHz - 2.20 GHz
available frequency steps: 2.20 GHz, 2.00 GHz, 1.80 GHz, 1000 MHz
available cpufreq governors: userspace, powersave, ondemand,
conservative, performance current policy: frequency should be within
1000 MHz and 2.20 GHz. The governor "ondemand" may decide which speed
to use within this range.
current CPU frequency is 1000 MHz.
I use the ondemand setting and as you can see my 2.2Gz runs at 1.0 Gz
most of the time
