If I shut down cpuspeed, it shows 3200 in all places, but there's still the disparity with the "Detected" line from dmesg. I haven't isolated it yet, but for some reason sometimes gkrell and the cpuspeed icon shows 800 even when /proc/cpuinfo shows otherwise. > model name : AMD Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 3700+ > stepping : 10 > cpu MHz : 798.186 <<<<< This is my baddie :) And you don't have cpuspeed running? Is it any different if you boot into single-user mode and rule out any programs or other drivers that may be influencing the CPU speed?
