Dave,
Thanks for the pointer to tpctl (ThinkPad configuration tools for Linux). It allowed me to change the default speed so I get 300 MHz at boot.
|| When my ThinkPad 600E boots Linux says that it has a 75 MHz CPU, || but my BIOS tells me it has a 300 MHz CPU -- whats the deal? | Try tpctl. (http://tpctl.sourceforge.net/)
Using tpctl I was able to figure out that the key sequene FN+F11 can be used to toggle power mode (the F11 key has faucet icon :-).
With my CPU at full speed a couple of other problems that I was having have gone away. I was having problems with keyboard focus when I switch X term windows and sometime X clients would get broken pipe errors when starting up.
Thanks,
