Title:
  /proc/cpuinfo bad cpu speed detection

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: linux-source-2.6.24

  I have a Core 2 Quad Q6600 (stock speed : 9*266MHz=2.4GHz) running @ 7*400MHz=2.8GHz.
  dmidecode reports the good settings but the /proc/cpuinfo file is wrong and indicates 3.6GHz (stock ratio x overclocked fsb).
  The motherboard is a Gygabyte GA-965P-DS3.
