WARNING: This program could cause damage to your Hardware! I know the clock speed of the processor is dropping because of the outputs from: $ cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep "MHz"Ĭpupowerd 0.2.1 written by Markus Strobl. I will be obvious as the machine starts to become somewhat unresponsive, and with video streaming, the frame rate will drop dramatically. If I run videos on youtube via firefox, occasionally the clock speed will drop, not necessarily though.

It typically occurs when I'm running an application, or applications that require a rather large amount of system resources. I installed the program about 2 months before this problem started happening. I installed a program that allows me to control the clock speed for the K8 processor family called cpupowerd so I am able to adjust the speed back to what It's suppose to be easily. For the past few months, the clock speed has been droppign to 800mhz. It's dual core and the default frequency is 1.8 ghz. This is the most unusually problem that I have.
