No, that is the older processor. It should be running an internal and external bus speed of 100 MHZ (99). The newer processors (PXA255 aka PXA250C1) should not default to this.

This is one hell of a discovery and definitely needs some attention....a move to the aximsite.com index page, duplication in the tell Dell forum, a pin to the top.....something.
Mods?

If you set your axim to maximium performance in the Power App, and look at the bus speed with CPUID what do you see? I see 199 MHz and Im not using third party. I

HighPlains,
Are you talking about your Run Mode Frequency or your PXbus Frequency. We're all talking about PXbus frequency. I ask because my run mode frequency is also 199Mhz and wanted to make sure you were on the same page.

SDRAM max Frequency: 99 MHz

Anton recommended I check out the PXBus setting with 2.41beta version of Pocket Hack Master. I will be checking it out shortly and will post.

I've tried what you suggested with XScaleCtrl
If you set the values manually to L=27 M=4 and N=1.0 you get the following
CPU Run: 398
Current Mode: Run
Turbo Mode: 398
Run Mode: 398
PXBus Mode: 199
SDRAM max:99
MEM LCD: 99
L = 1 M = 3 N = 2
Not sure why the values do not correspond correctly, however, it does seem to set the Bus speed correctly

Yes, I noticed the L, M, N difference in CPUID. It came up the same way for the HP 2215. I think there is a reference difference when reporting the values?? Maybe CPUID is referencing a table of values and Pocket Hack Master, XScaleCTRL, and Intel are referencing the values themselves??
I think a new version of Pocket Hack Master is coming out with profiles to take the Axim PXBus setting in hand.
