(I couldn't resist using that title for my first post)
I have two BSEL'd Xeon E5320s (1.86 GHz standard) in a Tyan 5000 motherboard, running ub8.04. On the first run after putting in the modified CPUs /proc/cpuinfo reported 23xx MHz, but on subsequent boots the CPU speed was reported as 1600 MHz (please don't shout "the answer is ****ing obvious", just yet).
So I disabled C1E in the BIOS and gutted power management in ubuntu (as far as I could, as SPM threatens to remove all kinds of stuff if you touch powermgmt-base). Now /proc/cpuinfo reports the speed as 1867 MHz, and during boot-up the memory is listed as running at 533 MHz - as if the BSEL mod was never applied.
What steps should I take to recover the missing MHz?
