Yes, that would also have been my next question.
Maybe you even *find* a bug in that BIOS right now that should be corrected.
I actually am running the latest firmware. I had thought that maybe that was
the problem, but I rev'ed it about a month ago and it did not solve it. Am
waiting for the Ubuntu 10.10 to finish downloading and give that a whirl.

Yes, Mick, that was my first governor. I thought I'd try to see if it
would behave at top speed if I set it to performance. No luck, though.
And I can easily change the governor. It

Well, if I change the BIOS to turn off SpeedStep, it goes to 2.67

good to hear. So it is solved?

Yeah, the cpufreq utils show all the relevant information. I use the
