I have same cpu but with home brew kernel 2.6.15.1 (I don't see what you have)
> cat /proc/acpi/processor/CPU0/throttling > <not supported> funny, I only have a CPU1 there, even though I only have, euh ... 1 cpu. (Wel... maybe not so funny ;o) Anyway it also says <not supported> there. But, I seem to remember the proc interface for this was somehow depricated. Check if you seen anything in /sys (obviously, you should have the sys filesystem mounted): cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/stats/time_in_state 2000000 292495 1800000 6574 1000000 704969 I surmise from this that on my system most of the time is spent at 1 GHz. Don't know what the time scale is though (bogomips ?) Cheers, Ernest.
