Re: Incorrect mdelay() results on Power Managed Machines x86

[Tim Wright]

If it's a 500MHz Thinkpad, then I'm guessing it's something like a 600X.
That doesn't have Speedstep. The speed changes are done by some circuitry
in the laptop. I can try to find out more if this would help.
The newer machines are using Speedstep.
