From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.2) Gecko/20040803 Description of problem: I have a 1666GHZ processor on the Sony VAIO PCG-FR130 laptop. On a different harddrive I have installed RH Linux ES and when I go to /proc then cat cpuinfo, I am able to view the appropriate value for the cpu (MHZ) field of 1666. I recently bought a new harddrive and installed Fedora Core 2, which seems to run perfectly, however when I do a cat /proc/cpuinfo I get the value of 400.243 which is significantly lower than the installed processor. I am thinking this a kernel problem as the /proc files are calculated during initialization. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kernel-2.6.5-1.358 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.boot 2.cat /proc/cpuinfo 3. Actual Results: false value for cpu (MHZ) which is 400 Expected Results: value should be 1666 Additional info:
