supported_frequencies_Hz 600000000:800000000:1000000000 The speeds reported by the supported_frequencies_Hz are obtained from the ACPI tables exported by the system BIOS. So, the best guess is that your BIOS has some bad ACPI tables. You can probably disable SpeedStep in your BIOS setup and you'll be able to obtain the 2.66GHz. But you won't be getting any CPU power savings. It might be worth dumping your ACPI tables to verify that they are the problem. I've attached a program, iasl, that you can use to dump the tables. The usage is "iasl -g". You might want to run the command in a newly created directory as there can be a number of files created.
