What does this say?
tom # cat /proc/cpuinfo
processor : 0
vendor_id : AuthenticAMD
cpu family : 6
model : 10
model name : AMD Athlon(tm) XP 3000+
stepping : 0
cpu MHz : 2301.434
Default for this processor is 13x166.66 (multiplier x FSB), or
2167. 2301 results from 13x177. You should be able to tell what
multiplier and FSB you're currently set to in bios. Otherwise, use
the result of cat /proc/cpuinfo and a calculator to figure it out
for yourself. EG, 1833 would be 11/166.66, which is default for
your cpu. 1833 @ 133.33 FSB would be impossible since the
multiplier would be 13.75, and only .5 multiplier increments are
allowed (eg, 11, 11.5, 12, 12.5 .....).
As you can see, even tho my cpu is overclocked, it's still
reported as an XP 3000+. So don't go by that. IE, mine is actually
clocked 83 mhz faster than an XP 3200+ (...so it's a 3300+ ?).
