Alvaro Leal (Effenberg0x0), this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .
If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p linux <replace-with-bug-number> If reproducible, could you also please test the latest upstream kernel available (not the daily folder) following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags: kernel-fixed-upstream kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example: kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.13-rc6 This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag: needs-upstream-testing If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags: kernel-bug-exists-upstream kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER As well, please remove the tag: needs-upstream-testing Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your understanding. ** Tags removed: 1100t amd core cpu kernel-request-3.0.0-11.18 kernel-request-3.0.0-12.19 kernel-request-3.0.0-12.20 phenom powernow-k8 turbo x6 ** Tags added: bios-outdated-3209 bot-stop-nagging ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Triaged => Incomplete ** Tags added: needs-upstream-testing -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/835431 Title: AMD Phenom II X6 1100T cpu (Turbo Core Feature Again) Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: SYSTEM - Default install of Ubuntu Natty 64 bits, followed by sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-upgrade. - Kernel 2.6.38-11-generic #48-Ubuntu SMP x86_64 GNU/Linux PROBLEM Inability of Ubuntu to properly recognize the CPU max speed and steps when the AMD Turbo Core feature is enabled.

It reports the "standard" CPU speeds (800MHz, 1.7GHz, 2.5GHz, 3.3GHz) - However my CPU has Turbo Core activated in BIOS, with max speed = 4.3 GHz. HISTORIC - This used to be a problem in powernow-k8 module, which was already fixed.
