detect wrong processor speed?
has anyone had this problem? with kernel 2.4.1 and up (i think for kernel 2.4.0 too, can't remember) on my thinkpad 600x my kernel reports:
Detected 172.927 MHz processor.
although i know it's a 650MHz processor and is detected as such under 2.2.18pre22? it feels to me to be running at the proper speed, but with linux's awesome multitasking capabilities, maybe i just can't tell ;-) anyway, i haven't compiled the tpctl modules or installed them, so i haven't played with the fact that the kernel is reporting some speedstepped speed, and i'm not running full speed.
is this a common bug that i should ignore, or am i running under speed?
nathanp.
