Hardware Specs Reported in Dispatches
My Hack is reporting an incorrect CPU speed to the "About This Mac" screen under 10.5.7. My system has a Core 2 Duo e8500 running at stock, non-OC. My Mobo is a Gigabyte EP35-DS3P, and I'm currently running iPC 10.5.7 (upgraded through 10.5.7 combo update). Vanilla kernel.
That fixed the problem for me; my CPU speed is now reported correctly. What exactly did you do to get the CPU detected properly? And would this replacement kext fix other systems with modern Intel CPUs or is this specific to the Core 2 Duo e8500?
