The ABINIT Users Mailing List ( CLOSED )

Dear ABINITioners who loves Linux boxes,

Although this is not directly related to ABINIT,
still I just thought that the following URL might 
be useful to Linuxers.

http://www.brodo.de/cpufreq/24stable.html

It says that the patch might work to control speedstep 
of CPU for Linux: download the patch for your CPU (if available), 
then recompile the kernel. 
Then, if you are lucky, you could confirm the speedup with

cat /proc/sys/cpu/0/speed-max > /proc/sys/cpu/0/speed

or "xengine" etc. I have just learned this from a Mailing-list 
for Japanese Linuxers. It said that it could be effective.
I have not yet tried this, so you could try it "at your own risk"...

Regards,
Masayoshi Mikami
