This is linuxinfo, used on Linux platforms.

The latest releases are always available at:

	http://www.tahallah.demon.co.uk/programming/prog.html

linuxinfo was written by Alex Buell, alex.buell@tahallah.demon.co.uk

See the CREDITS file for a list of folks who have helped us out. linuxinfo
is copyrighted under the terms of the GPL and LGPL (See the COPYING file for
the details).
 
To build, simply use:

	./configure 
	make

Once it's finished the make process, su to root (if not already root), and
use:

	make install

to install the linuxinfo binary and man page to the appropriate
directories. Default is for the binary to go into /usr/local/bin and for
the man page to go into /usr/local/man/man8. You can change this by using
the --prefix in ./configure if required.

If linuxinfo does not recognize your CPU, please send me a copy of your 
/proc/cpuinfo file, and I shall fix for next version. Thanks. 

NOTE! linuxinfo has no capability to detect the clock speed on kernels
older than 2.1.x, *or* on low end processors.
