Finding the Kernel frequency

[burdena]

Need to find out what frequancy my box is running at as I can't get above 130 fps on it.

Server details

AMD64 3700 2 Gb

Linux 2.6.14-1.1656_FC4 #1 Thu Jan 5 22:13:22 EST 2006 i686 athlon i386 GNU/Linux

gcc (GCC) 4.0.2 20051125 (Red Hat 4.0.2-8)

ldd (GNU libc) 2.3.5


Can someone tell me which file the timer frequentcy is in. I've looked around the param.h files but don't see it.

I can tackle the recompile once I know it's needed

cheers

so I found ...

param.h:#define HZ sysconf(_SC_CLK_TCK)

what the hell does that mean ?

afaik 2.6.13 is the first kernel with 250 Hz kernel frequency. The 2.6.11-kernel is the only one with 1000 Hz in FC4.

How Can I find what kernel I am useing. Fedora core 4

I found that yum as 2.6.11-kernel-smp (I have dual mps)

Would this Be the easiest thing to do it use yum to install the kernel??

You answered your own question

2.6.15-1.1831_FC4smp

To find your kernel try
#uname -r

Ya I found that out but I still need more then 150 fps on my source servers

Should I use yum or should I recompile the current kernel?
