[Bug 64133] Re: CPU not detected on a Compaq Proliant 3000 dual P II 400 Mhz

[C. Brayton]

I have had this problem in both 2.6.31-17 and 2.6.32-9 (both generic and
using the compiled-in acpi-cpufreq)

cat /proc/cpuinfo yields

The CPU is a Duo 2 T2500 @2GHz, as shown, but the GHz is shown as 1GHz.
This throttles down my CPU to a maximum of 1GHz, making frequency
scaling impossible. I have tried disabling scaling in BIOS (Dell
Latitude D620, v.A10) to at least get the cpu to run at a constant 2GHz
so I can work while waiting for a fix. No joy so far. Have even thought
of compiling the old speedstep-centrino driver as a module, but not done
with that time-intensive experiment yet.

clscpu yields:
