(not sure of Linux Kernel itself) This is for intel core2duo, not amd, but to address if the kernel will scale pr core or pr. chip. On my machine running 2.6.27.7 (standard ubuntu intrepid kernel), it will scale the to cores separatedly: *snip* model name : Intel(R) Core(TM)2 CPU 4300 @ 1.80GHz *snip* [ 15:01 ] henrikau@icarus:~ $ cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep "cpu MHz" cpu MHz : 1200.000 cpu MHz : 1800.000 So, the kernel is capable of scaling each core individually. > But at least 4 flags must be present (read above email): ts, ttp, fid, > vid.
