how would I check the current cpu frequency? i already tried this with
these various windows apps, they all never showed a current cpu freq
higher than 1.2GHz.

also, i have the possibility in bios to disable intel speedstep, and to
set the system to run at max performance while on ac. no matter how i set
these, dmesg always shows the same.
