After a reboot, cpuinfo returned normal values... for a while.

My best guess so far is it some how relates to the cpufreq governer.As of 2.6.14, changing between performance and userspace seems to hose up the clock values in cpuinfo.

At the moment it is using the userspace governor (powernowd) and returning between 7 and 14 GHz and 15-28k bogomips. So, I'm inclined to think this is a kernel bug. The available clock speeds should be between 500MHz and 1.5GHz.

I'm going to reboot again and experiment a bit to see if I can nail down what triggers the abberation.

Wow, that's pretty fast...

Can you think of _anything_ you may have changed since before it was hosed? If
not then perhaps you have found a kernel bug.
