Okay, I found out that sysinfo can provide that information:

-Processors-
Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 3.06GHz        : 3066.54MHz
Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 3.06GHz        : 3066.54MHz

BogoMIPS: 6133.08

By the way, it is 64bit CPU but that does not really matter since I have
512MB Phsycial RAM on that machine.
