The above is part of the /proc/cpuinfo from a Lenovo desktop PC running Debian/Testing. The below is the same from an NEC PC also running Debian/Testing.
Both systems are under light desktop load at the moment, and the above Lenovo system still ran at 1.2GHz even when the MySQL bug I previously mentioned was afflicting it. Any ideas on how I can get the Lenovo system running at full speed?
Are you running any of the cpufreq packages that might be limiting the speed on one of the systems?
If you are running cpufrequitls, what does cpufreq-info say?
Packages are not needed; Ubuntu and IIRC Debian default to ondemand. $ grep 2>/dev/null -r --include '*governor*' . /sys/devices/system/cpu/ /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuidle/current_governor_ro:menu /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor:ondemand /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_available_governors:interactive conservative ondemand userspace performance /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/cpufreq/scaling_governor:ondemand /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/cpufreq/scaling_available_governors:interactive conservative ondemand userspace performance
