Re: [ubuntu-uk] pc frequency monitoring thing in taskbar
I don't know how accurate it is, but I think it reads better if you set it to
show the frequency units rather than a percentage. I've come across desktops
with mobile processors in them before, there may also be some desktop
processors with scaling features that I don't know about.Regards,TomSTONE COLD

Re: [ubuntu-uk] pc frequency monitoring thing in taskbarHi,I assume you mean
the CPU frequency scaling monitor? This doesn't monitor CPU activity per se,
it's for use with mobile processors with Speedstep technology. When the CPU
isn't being maxed out it will run at a lower clock speed to save energy (to
extend battery life) - mine flips between 600MHz and 1.4GHz.Regards,TomSTONE

Hi, I have a q about my pc. I dragged and dropped the CPU frequency monitoring
thing into my taskbar. But it seems to be stuck on 38% constantly..even when
the pc is idle..when i open up an app it will jump to 100% and then back
again.. What could be causing this? Im using gutsy! Regards Javad
