Hi!

Or is this just a bug in Debian 2.0? i don´t think that´s a bug -- it´s just a matter of accuracy of the timer and/or of the measuring-loop - and last not least the accuracy of the clockchip and/or the quartz (if there´s any in you comp) my experience: once i´ve measured my old 486 with norton util´s, that said my 66Mhz comp works with 64Mhz, one minute later with 67Mhz, another minute later 63Mhz (there were some heat-problems *g*) -- so you can say if the deviation is only less than one or two percent your cpu works with the right frequency -- until next mail ;) . ___ ---___ .--. ./ - / \ ___ ( DEBIAN `- |O O | | | ; --. | | |___| : GNU/Linux _- |<_) \. | __ eter | - / | || | `. www.debian.org / ' .\. ||__| ` --- . ___ ..
