Subject: cpu speed is 165mhz instead of real 650mhz

Hello guys!

This periodicly appears in my system. The Kernel seems to misdetect the
right cpu speed and then it's running only at 165mhz.
I don't really understand why this happens, there's no acpi enabled, which
caused this failure the last time.

I attached .config of 2.5.24 [which still runs fine with devfs :) ]
and /proc/cpuinfo.

Please cc me when answering.

Nico

Is this a notebook computer? Is it that you're sometimes booting it up
while the system is unplugged (ie. on battery)?
