Since last time, I've upgraded the bios to the latest (A03) and reset bios to default values - but the problem is still there. According to the specs, a SX260 supports all Pentium 4 cpus with 400 MHz and 533 MHz FSB (front side bus). > Something set that way in BIOS? What does 'sysctl dev.cpu' say? The only setting in bios related to cpu speed are "normal" and "comaptible". I've tried both - doesn't make a difference. Now sysctl.dev.cpu says: root@kg-work2# sysctl dev.cpu dev.cpu.0.%desc: ACPI CPU dev.cpu.0.%driver: cpu dev.cpu.0.%location: handle=\_PR_.CPU0 dev.cpu.0.%pnpinfo: _HID=none _UID=0 dev.cpu.0.%parent: acpi0 dev.cpu.0.freq: 1295 dev.cpu.0.freq_levels: 1295/-1 1133/-1 971/-1 809/-1 647/-1 485/-1 323/-1 dev.cpu.0.cx_supported: C1/0 dev.cpu.0.cx_lowest: C1 dev.cpu.0.cx_usage: 100.00% last 500us dev.cpu.1.%desc: ACPI CPU dev.cpu.1.%driver: cpu dev.cpu.1.%location: handle=\_PR_.CPU1 dev.cpu.1.%pnpinfo: _HID=none _UID=0 dev.cpu.1.%parent: acpi0 dev.cpu.1.cx_supported: C1/0 dev.cpu.1.cx_lowest: C1 dev.cpu.1.cx_usage: 100.00% last 500us > > Only spotted a verbose dmesg for 7.2-STABLE there, not for 8.0? Not, I didn't make one that evening. There is one over ther now. :-) > I suppose you have HTT disabled in BIOS? Yes, I had, it is enabled now. -- Regards, Torfinn Ingolfsen
