On I4000 (bios A16):
fn+# Toggle CPU speed
It seems to switch the CPU speed: Switching to "high" is accompanied by
a high-pitched beep, to "low" speed is accompanied by a low-pitched beep
(should that be written as buuurp?). I don't know whether this is
speed-step or the good old' "turbo" button re-invented (and
inverted...).
When in low speed, battery time is improved quite a bit (I get about 90
minutes more out of my 2 old batteries), and bogomips (according to the
command, not the kernel at boot) goes from ~ 1000 to ~ 230
Since keymaps around the world differ: I have a UK keyboard, with the #
key on the same row as ASDFGHJK: immediately to the left of [Enter]
