Yup ... /proc/cpuinfo will give you the current clock speed for the 
processor. Another thing I noticed ... when the machine was running
the 
original process, I got this:

[root@grover /proc]# more cpuinfo
processor       : 0
vendor_id       : AuthenticAMD
cpu family      : 5
model           : 8
model name      : AMD-K6(tm) 3D processor
stepping        : 12
cpu MHz         : 298.813
cache size      : 64 KB
fdiv_bug        : no
hlt_bug         : no
sep_bug         : no
f00f_bug        : no
coma_bug        : no
fpu             : yes
fpu_exception   : yes
cpuid level     : 1
wp              : yes
flags           : fpu vme de pse tsc msr mce cx8 sep mtrr pge mmx
3dnow
bogomips        : 596.38
temperature     : 33
system type     : RaQ3/4

Afterwards, I got this:

[root /proc]# more cpuinfo
processor       : 0
vendor_id       : AuthenticAMD
cpu family      : 5
model           : 8
model name      : AMD-K6(tm) 3D processor
stepping        : 12
cpu MHz         : 498.021442
fdiv_bug        : no
hlt_bug         : no
sep_bug         : no
f00f_bug        : no
coma_bug        : no
fpu             : yes
fpu_exception   : yes
cpuid level     : 1
wp              : yes
flags           : fpu vme de pse tsc msr mce cx8 sep mtrr pge mmx
3dnow
bogomips        : 992.87
temperature     : 34.5

What I thought was interesting ... after upgrading to the 500MHz
processor, 
/proc/cpuinfo doesn't show the system type as Raq3/4 any more.

Just fyi ...
