Hi there!
Since a few days I've got a new AMD Athlon 64 3200+ System and I have installed SuSE 9.1. Nearly everthing works perfect, but the system runs only with 800 MHz (!?!?) CPU clockrate. I've tested all three possibilities in the BIOS (Silent/Auto/max.Performance?), but it's always the same: hwinfo --cpu shows only 800 MHZ
That's just fine. The system has nothing to do - and is so bored that it sleeps ;-). The AMD64 cpus are capable of dynamic power scaling and we use powersaved to change this. Run powersave -f (as root) to get an always faster system - or do something cpu bound and your cpu will be fast directly... Note that jobs that are niced are not taken into account for the load calculation (yes, this will be changed), Andreas -- Andreas Jaeger, aj@suse.de, http://www.suse.de/~aj SUSE Linux AG, Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany GPG fingerprint = 93A3 365E CE47 B889 DF7F FED1 389A 563C C272 A126
