Except when I check (using KDE) for hardware info, I get that the CPU's are 1.6Ghz (at which speed the dual kernel used to run under 10.3), but I can't seem to get them to run faster that 1Ghz.

Any hints?

Hi list,

- just tried "cpufreq-set -d 1.6GHz" - this WORKED! My DELL is back to normal high speed, it simply feels and shows :-)

Now, I'd like to keep it that way...what would be the best approach?

And oh...thanks A LOT for all answers. In fact; question asked, answered and problem solved in less than 3 minutes. Thanks again!

Hi list,

- I'm on openSuSE11.1 on my DELL Precision M90, all (nearly) all is good.

Except when I check (using KDE) for hardware info, I get that the CPU's are 1.6Ghz (at which speed the dual kernel used to run under 10.3), but I can't seem to get them to run faster that 1Ghz.

Aren't they running in powersave mode? If you start something very CPU hungry, don't they speed up?

Hi, no I've never ever seen the CPU run at 1.6Ghz under openSuSE11.1 -- ------------------------------ Med venlig hilsen/Best regards Verner Kjærsgaard -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
