Hello all, A simple command is: watch -n 5 grep MHz /proc/cpuinfo or with powersaved running (in Alexey's case, it is running) watch -n 5 powersave -r KPowersave also shows real-time CPU speed, which it gets from powersaved. (Does powersaved use information from /proc?) The sysinfo KIO slave (which is 'My Computer') uses /proc directly. -- Regards, Aveek Bhattacharya IIT Bombay DITTISHAM (n.)
