i did dmesg | grep freq and got this: OpenPIC timer frequency is 4.160000 MHz time_init: decrementer frequency = 16.640000 MHz
i have an iBook G3 500 i believe, i do have the file timebase-frequency and all those files in /proc/device-tree/cpus/PowerPC,750 but I cannot open an of those files. ntpdate did work, so my time is normal now, thanks, Jule On Mon, 14 Jul 2003 14:31 , Gabriel Paubert <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> sent: >On Mon, Jul 14, 2003 at 08:41:01AM -0400, Jule Slootbeek wrote: >> the frequency would be: >> >> time_init: decrementer frequency = 16.640000 MHz > >What iBook do you have?
