  1. That does seem to have done the trick brilliantly, thank you! :D Now it's -all- fixed and good. I think you guys have made a convert of me, from Ubuntu. This has been fixed, the resolution issue could not be. Thanks so much, everybody. You've really made my week.
  2. I added the blacklist line like I was supposed to, but it continues to load the module on each boot anyway, but I can just unload it at each start until I find a more permanent solution. That tiny hiccup aside, my problem is solved! Thanks to everyone that helped, I greatly appreciate it.
  3. That worked perfectly, thank you! How do I blacklist a process? I've never had to do it before.

  6. So I have a computer here, that for a number of reasons, mainly that Ubuntu refuses to get my screen resolution right, I have installed Mandriva on. For the most part, everything is sunshine and butterflies and I love it. For the most part. Madriva thinks my CPU speed is a good chunk less than it is- it reads the processor name right, which includes the speed it SHOULD be- 1.7 GHz-, but the speed listed is wrong. Before we go any further- it's not CPU scaling. I have the little CPU scaling monitor open, and it says 13.80GHz (100%). Yes. It's reading it as considerably more than it really is. Some info from my hardware profiles: Identification Processor ID: ‎1 Vendor: ‎GenuineIntel Model name: ‎Intel® Celeron® CPU 1.70GHz Cpuid family: ‎15 Model: ‎1 Model stepping: ‎3 Connection Vendor ID: ‎0x0000 Device ID: ‎0x0000 Sub vendor ID: ‎0x0000 Sub device ID: ‎0x0000 Performances Frequency (MHz): ‎13800.000 Cache size: ‎128 KB Bogomips: ‎3383.32 Anything you folks can do to help me? Programs that check my CPU speed, like SecondLife, claim it's too low, despite it's real speed being higher than the requirements. I'd love to have this working as it should, and you guys certainly seem to be the ones to ask. If you need any additional info, let me know, and I'll get it for you.
