Hi!

I played with my brand new AlphaPC 164SX today, and I noticed
one strange thing:

- the first time I booted it (5.3-BETA1), it displayed the
  following early in dmesg(8):

  "Digital AlphaPC 164SX 533 MHz, 266MHz"

  and the same value for the "alpha" timecounter.

- the second time I booted it (the same 5.3-BETA1), it displayed:

  "Digital AlphaPC 164SX 533 MHz, 531MHz"

  and the same value for the "alpha" timecounter.

What's going on here?  (No, I didn't change any motherboard
configuration in between.)


Cheers,
