Ive been looking for programs that reports a computers bus speed for a
while. Im using a Sawtooth with an overclocked bus. I know that the
bus speed
is changed because benchmarks are dramatically different. About this
Mac and
Xbench both are fixed at 100MHz. They dont actually try to find the
bus speed
they just see that it is a Sawtooth and figure it must be 100MHz.
Anyway, I
need some way of figuring out what my bus speed is. Is there a way to
view
this in the terminal? Right now, I cant find my Mac OS 9 boot disk so
thats not
an option. Im in OS X only.
Thanks

yes, there is a way to get this info using the Terminal. I thought of
it when you first posted. I used it to check the cpu & bus speed of my
Mac clone machine running OSX. It was sort of hacked together and used
XPostfacto to install OSX & run it. Apple system profiler always gave
the wrong info or even ?? as the answer! The command is written down
somewhere but I can't find it . I've spent a fair amount of time
looking and on the web. My clone machine started giving correct info in
Panther using system profiler. The only command I can find on the web
works on my machine but it's not the one I was looking for. Give it a
try and let me know if it works or may give the same wrong answers?
In the terminal type
system_profiler no caps and then the return or enter key. It give a
lot more info then the regular app does . Maybe someone else knows the
command? Will S
