A friend of mine wanted to know how fast the new black linux boxes were, so I
told him to run "athinfo gorf cpuspeed" (gorf is the test cluster's GX150),
and it returned no output. Upon inspection of a couple Athena 9.0.8 Linux
boxes, I believe a typo snuck in when the patch to add that query was
committed. I'll submit another patch for that.
Separately, the cpuspeed query doesn't seem to exist on SGIs (this from
inspecting not-for-reuse and aupair), though the athinfo.defs file has the
correct query in CVS. I think perhaps an oversight happened and this file
wasn't included as part of a patch release as intended.
Suns seem to be fine with the cpuspeed query, but that hasn't changed since
Athena 8.4.
