Hi, How about trying the 'x86info' program. You should be able to get it apt-get. Then run the command 'x86info -mhz'. Here's what I get from running the command...
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ x86info -mhz x86info v1.3. Dave Jones 2001 Feedback to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>. Found 1 CPU Intel-specific functions Family: 6 Model: 8 Type 0 [Celeron / Pentium III (Coppermine) Original OEM] Stepping: 3 Reserved: 0 802MHz processor (estimate). Running 'x86info -a' is even more informative. Sorry if this reply was a little late for your report. But I just woke up a little bit ago. HTH, Jim Richards The perfect computer has been developed. You just feed in your problems they never come out again. --Al Goodman On Thu, Jul 26, 2001 at 08:20:13AM +0200, Danie Roux wrote: > I want to get the CPU's model and speed without rebooting. > > /proc/cpuinfo (to me anyway) is useless.
