hi!

When i call "cat /proc/cpuinfo" on fedora core 3 (kernel 2.6.9) on my
dell inspiron 5150 notebook it shows the following:

processor       : 0
vendor_id       : GenuineIntel
cpu family      : 15
model           : 2
model name      : Mobile Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4     CPU 3.06GHz
stepping        : 9
cpu MHz         : 1595.024
cache size      : 512 KB
fdiv_bug        : no
hlt_bug         : no
f00f_bug        : no
coma_bug        : no
fpu             : yes
fpu_exception   : yes
cpuid level     : 2
wp              : yes
flags           : fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 apic mtrr pge mca
cmov pat pse36 clflush dts acpi mmx fxsr sse sse2 ss ht tm pbe cid
xtpr
bogomips        : 3154.27

When I call that command on the same machine in debian sarge (kernel
2.4.27), it shows this:

processor       : 0
vendor_id       : GenuineIntel
cpu family      : 15
model           : 2
model name      : Mobile Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4     CPU 3.06GHz
stepping        : 9
cpu MHz         : 3056.552
cache size      : 512 KB
fdiv_bug        : no
hlt_bug         : no
f00f_bug        : no
coma_bug        : no
fpu             : yes
fpu_exception   : yes
cpuid level     : 2
wp              : yes
flags           : fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 sep mtrr pge mca
cmov pat pse36 clflush dts acpi mmx fxsr sse sse2 ss ht tm pbe cid
bogomips        : 6094.84

Fedora recognizes the p4 mobile 3ghz as 1595.024 mhz and not as
3056.552 mhz as in debian??! How can that be?

regards, oliver
