http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13995 --- Comment #3 from Ben Morris <iamtheben@xxxxxxxxx> 2009-08-17 08:24:55 --- I'm sorry to say that I gave incorrect information above: the CPU *was* slightly overclocked, because the BIOS config screen seems to be buggy (choosing something like "default setting - 1866 (266)" for the FSB frequency actually caused it to be set at 272MHz for a CPU clock speed of 1904MHz - yes I know this is not a kernel issue; just explaining how I got the incorrect information). This meant that the figure from Slax was correct. At no point was the CPU overheated, nor were there any signs of instability, even when compiling many packages (with -j3). The motherboard is an Abit AB9. Setting the memory frequency to 266 manually in the BIOS makes the kernel report correctly again. I presume this is still a bug, since when slightly overclocked the CPU frequency is misread, when the machine is running very stably and older kernels are able to display it correctly. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe cpufreq" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
