I'm curious as to what clockspeeds people are able to get out of Ultras... My U10 333MHz will run at 380 quite happily, but OBP won't let me set it any higher. Has anyone found a way to work around that?

I'd be happy to do that when I get to work tomorrow....

... But how do I check?

I've got an Ultra 30.



(Yes, I am that new... It is that scary...)

When you boot up, hit stop-a to get into OBP and type 'banner'. That'll show you what the CPU's running at. Alternatively, cat /proc/cpuinfo, look for bogomips and divide by two for an approximation...

Hmmm overclocking a sparc, interesting ...

How did you change this? I wouldn't mind trying it on my U10.

fpu             : UltraSparc II integrated FPU
promlib         : Version 3 Revision 11
