The hw.setperf sysctl is for CPUs that support running at various speeds through mechanisms such as Intel's SpeedStep (such as the Pentium M). I wonder whether AMD's Cool 'n Quiet feature works similarly; haven't tested it yet. Unless I'm badly mistaken, Pentium 3 chips do not support such a feature, making it rather useless to return a value (or set one, for that matter). Feel free to enlighten me if I'm wrong. > How about the snapshot-version? On a different note, you may want to try APM (or its counterpart ACPI that is currently being worked on). If your CPU doesn't support slowing down, I suppose you're out of luck. Cheers, Rogier -- If you don't know where you're going, any road will get you there.
