SliTaz SliTaz Forum archive

This forum is now a read-only archive

The SliTaz community has moved to Maille, a forum made for SliTaz.

We looked hard for a replacement for this aging forum, including a move from bbPress to FluxBB last June. But spam bots now get through sign-up even with mail confirmation, and these forum engines are barely maintained anymore. So we wrote a forum in the SliTaz spirit: small, fast, no JavaScript, works on old machines and in text browsers. Everything here stays readable.

Is this something I have to be concerned???

I have a laptop with 1.5ghz processor. I have linux mint LXDE installed on it and with conky running. I noticed the CPU meter stays at 600MHz then from time to time jumps to 1.5GHz when needed.

Now, the same pc with Slitaz cooking it just stays at 600MHz. I've never seen it work at full speed. Is this a problem or SliTaz is just really that good? I'm doing the same thing that makes it work harder when booted using Linux Mint.

Re: Is this something I have to be concerned???

Well... not really. SliTaz doesn't come with CPU stepping support, so you either run at full speed or minimum all the time. There however is a work around for this and it's described @ http://vanilla.slitaz.org/index.php?p=/discussion/2472 and http://vanilla.slitaz.org/index.php?p=/discussion/comment/8300#Comment_8300
