Hai,
 
  I recently downloaded kernel 2.5.65, then applied subsequent patch
released by linus for 2.5.66 (patch-2.5.66.bz2),and then applied AC
patch (patch-2.5.66-ac1.bz2)

I got thrugh compilation except few errors in WAN drivers compilation
and character drivers compilation. Thats not my question is about.

I am using this kernel on RedHat 7.3 filesystem. I have few questions
and here they are.

Question 1:
problem on /proc/cpuinfo. cpuinfo doesnt showup speed in MHz. It shows
it as 0.00. and it shows different bogomips too.

I compared this with 2.4.18-18(kernel distributed by redhat), I am
attaching both the outputs below

2.4.18 /proc/cpuinfo
--------------------
processor : 0
vendor_id : GenuineIntel
cpu family : 15
model : 1
model name : Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 1.60GHz
stepping : 2
cpu MHz : 1594.840
cache size : 256 KB
fdiv_bug : no
hlt_bug : no
f00f_bug : no
coma_bug : no
fpu : yes
fpu_exception : yes
cpuid level : 2
wp : yes
flags : fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 apic sep mtrr pge mca cmov pat pse36 clflush dts acpi mmx fxsr sse sse2 ss ht tm
bogomips : 3164.53

/proc/cpuinfo from 2.5.65-ac4 (that is what being showed up in
/proc/version)
processor : 0
vendor_id : GenuineIntel
cpu family : 15
model : 1
model name : Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 1.60GHz
stepping : 2
cpu MHz : 0.000
cache size : 256 KB
fdiv_bug : no
hlt_bug : no
f00f_bug : no
coma_bug : no
fpu : yes
fpu_exception : yes
cpuid level : 2
wp : yes
flags : fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 apic sep mtrr pge
mca cmov pat pse36 clflush dts acpi mmx fxsr sse sse2 ss ht tm
bogomips : 2093.05

either the information provided in 2.4.18 or 2.5.65 is wrong. which is
correct then?

my /proc/version details
Linux version 2.5.65-ac4 (root@Agni) (gcc version 2.96 20000731 (Red Hat
Linux 7.3 2.96-113)) #9 Fri Mar 28 16:13:18 IST 2003

what could be wrong.

Second question: where is /proc/pci gone?

Third question: my KDE kicker doesnt startup, it gets crashed even if i
run as root. It happens so only in kernel 2.5.x and not 2.4.18. what
could be wrong for this?

If any of you want further details, i can post in too.

Thank you,
Gopi
