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:

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.
