We'v been test driving one box with openSUSE 11.0 on an i7 920 since around 1 June. The only issue I've seen is in the /proc/cpuinfo display :
processor : 7 vendor_id : GenuineIntel cpu family : 6 model : 26 model name : Intel(R) Core(TM) i7 CPU 920 @ 2.67GHz stepping : 5 cpu MHz : 1600.000 cache size : 8192 KB physical id : 0
I can't quite figure out why the cpu MHZ is quoted as 1600 when it's otherwise a 2.67GHz cpu.
I think it is power-saving feature. When there are no heavy apps running CPU is working at 1.6 GHz, but when u launch some heavy apps, it goes full speed at 2.66 GHz.
That sounds like a reasonable explanation - do you happen to know how to check if the CPU is in power saving mode? This server will likely never be that heavily loaded, but it would be interesting to check. /Per -- Per Jessen, Zürich (17.6°C) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
