Description of problem: Anaconda does not configure AMD64 processor to do cpu frequency. My processor would only run at 800 mhz but it has the capiblity to switch to 800,1.6, and 2.0 mhz. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Version that ships with fedora core 4. How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Install anaconda on an amd athon 64 cpu 2. 3. Actual results: processor operating consitantly at 800 mhz. Expected results: processor operating at 800 or 1.6 or 2.0 mhz depending on the load. Additional info: I edited /etc/cpuspeed.conf added DRIVER="powernow-k8" to the file. results of cat /proc/cpuinfo: [root@starlight ~]# cat /proc/cpuinfo processor : 0 vendor_id : AuthenticAMD cpu family : 15 model : 4 model name : AMD Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 3200+ stepping : 10 cpu MHz : 1994.742 cache size : 1024 KB fdiv_bug : no hlt_bug : no f00f_bug : no coma_bug : no fpu : yes fpu_exception : yes cpuid level : 1 wp : yes flags : fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 apic mtrr pge mca cmov pat pse36 clflush mmx fxsr sse sse2 syscall nx mmxext lm 3dnowext 3dnow bogomips : 3942.40 results of cat /proc/cpuinfo:

can you retry with the current errata kernel ? (There's actually a new one thats due to be pushed hopefully in the next few hours at http://people.redhat.com/davej/kernels/Fedora/FC4/ )
I commentted out the entries of /etc/cpuspeed.conf. Then tried with kernel 2.6.13-1.1526_FC4 and no luck.
This report targets the FC3 or FC4 products, which have now been EOL'd. Could you please check that it still applies to a current Fedora release, and either update the target product or close it ? Thanks.
This works quite well on multiple Athlon64 and Opteron systems under FC5 and FC6, so I'm going to go ahead and close this bug.
