 Posted: Wed Dec 14, 2005 8:05 am Post subject: MHZ in /proc/cpuinfo is way low, as is bogomips for my PIII |
 |
|
I am running a suspend2 kernel with my dell c600 which is Pentium III 750/600, and running 2005.1 gentoo with nothing special or anything unmasked.
Anyway my dmesg and /proc/cpuinfo both give me between half and 2/5ths my speed, my last count was 252 Mhz. Not what I want to see.
However my cpufreq-info is giving me the correct mhz and is speedstepping correctly, at least as far as what it reports.
The other wierd thing is I get a 350mhz reading if I use an SMP kernel and and 250 reading if it's a uniproc.
I am really confused, i setup everything correctly my acpi and cpufreq work great. Everything runs fine, but is my laptop just going at half speed? This is not something I would be particularly happy about 
Thanks for any help.

Here is my cpufreq-info output:

cpufrequtils 0.3: cpufreq-info (C) Dominik Brodowski 2004
Report errors and bugs to linux@brodo.de, please.
analyzing CPU 0:
driver: speedstep-smi
CPUs which need to switch frequency at the same time: 0
hardware limits: 600 MHz - 750 MHz
available frequency steps: 750 MHz, 600 MHz
available cpufreq governors: conservative, ondemand, powersave, userspace, performance
current policy: frequency should be within 750 MHz and 750 MHz.
The governor "performance" may decide which speed to use
within this range.
current CPU frequency is 750 MHz (asserted by call to hardware).

Does this happen when you're on full load?
I run cpudynd and my proc, when idling throttles back to about 800 mhz and on full load it's back to it's original 2000 mhz. |

This happens at boot, it isn't a problem of freq scaling, in fact freq scaling is working acording to my /proc info, the problem is that the kernel dmesg says my proc is running way slow.

Hello brakits.
Are you still working on a C600? I noticed you said your acpi is working correctly. could you post here and help me out?
https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-3294935.html#3294935
My cpufreq-info says everything is going well. In the power management guide it warns about incorectly reported speeds in proc. maybe try conky for monitoring, with this rc.
http://www.abdn.ac.uk/~fac075/browse/index.php?do=download&file=conky/rc/conkyrc-i8k.txt
then try to compile something and see if your Mhz go up to 750.
hope that helps.
Oh and one other thing, I've got speedstep-smi compiled as a module, and i've disabled that last little thingie in general kernel options that allows for the
[*] Power Management Timer Support
option in acpi. i can't remember what it was called right now, and i'm on a different machine, but i compiled once with it on and my computer was like an unresponsive snail. maybe like what you are experiencing? if that doesn't make sense i'll post the exact config screen when i get home.
