cpu speed

[Koala GNU]

Hi all,

I have a T21 thinkpad Pentium III 800 MHz.

I have red hat 8.0 installed with kernel 2.4.18.

Executing cat /proc/cpuinfo I noticed that cpu speed is 212.51 MHz.

Looking at BIOS the speed is correct.

Any idea?

PS

Why am I continuosly unsubscribed from the kernel list?

Please cc me in the answer, currently I am not subscibed to the list (I 
posted few minutes ago a new mail to majordomo).

Does this happen irrespective of whether you are plugged in to A/C power 
at the time? Most laptops will go to lower speeds on battery (depending 
on your setup in BIOS), and even if you plug in the power later, 
/proc/cpuinfo is not updated. So please make sure you boot up with A/C 
power and let us know if you see the same thing.

Thanks,
Rahul

Hi,
This steps are for you:
1. Go in bios setup
2. Select config/power
3. set to customized "power ac mode"
4. set to customized "power mode for battery"
5. set to fixed max processor speed
