AMD-K6 Bogomips problem solved (sort of)



Thanks all for your input.

The problem is solved in a way.

Before mucking with hardware i tried few software things.

With 2.0.36 compiled as 686 and as 586 i had only 350Bogomips with a 350MHz
K6-2

BUT (!) with 2.2.0pre7 compiled with CONFIG_M586TSC=y i have my full 700
bogomips !
with it /proc/cpuinfo shows everything right (CPU clock,etc...)

That's strange isn't it ? Probably a strange compilation quirk somewhere....

I'll stick with 2.0.36 for now (as 350Bogomips should be enough to serve only
few web pages), but i will wait anxiously to 2.2.0 final

Patrick
