37 Hi,

39 if

49 I dont know what CPU is running for you, but some cupper-wire tricks
50 only influence the multiplikator and this may (or may not) affect
51 the cpuinfo entries....dont know for sure...I only mention this to
52 keep you attention on the fact the "nothing happens" may result in
53 "nothing happens anymore" when/if the CPU is internally near core
54 melt in cpuinfo goes on holidays....
55
56 Keep hacking!
