Bug 85887 – basc shows 100 mhz for pentium 166

• Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description bugmail 2005-03-19 05:09:15 UTC]

On Pentium 166 the reported CPU_FREQ is "75 - 200", what results in 100 MHz on gentoo-stats.org.

/proc/cpuinfo
processor       : 0
vendor_id       : GenuineIntel
cpu family      : 5
model           : 2
model name      : Pentium 75 - 200
stepping        : 12
cpu MHz         : 165.794
fdiv_bug        : no
hlt_bug         : no
f00f_bug        : yes
coma_bug        : no
fpu             : yes
fpu_exception   : yes
cpuid level     : 1

flags           : fpu vme de pse tsc msr mce cx8
bogomips        : 326.65


Btw, you could save a few processes if you would do
CPU_FREQ = commands.getoutput(UHINVBIN+" -vf text | sed '/Performance Rating/!d;0,1!d;s/\s*Performance Rating:\s*//g'")
(not that this is important!)

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:

Actual Results:  
Result in "About my system"-webpage: CPU frequency  	100 MHz

Expected Results:  
Result in "About my system"-webpage: CPU frequency  	166 MHz
