analyzing CPU 0:
driver: powernow-k8
CPUs which need to switch frequency at the same time: 0 1
hardware limits: 800 MHz - 1.60 GHz
available frequency steps: 1.60 GHz, 800 MHz
available cpufreq governors: ondemand, performance
current policy: frequency should be within 800 MHz and 1.60 GHz.
The governor "ondemand" may decide which speed to use
within this range.
current CPU frequency is 800 MHz (asserted by call to hardware).

**** this time the bogomips didn't drop to half of the dual-cpu bogomips
**** mostly because the dual bogomips is now half
**** (as I said before, don't know if this is right)
**** the features list now shows "up"
**** (in addition to what the features list of the dual-cpu showed)
**** (is this right?, might have appeared in my initial post too)

**** compared to my initial post, everything below didn't change at all
**** meaning all inconsistences are still there
**** (like: cache size missing for the 2nd core)
**** still can't activate powernow-k8 for the 2nd core
**** bogomips appears to stay the same for each CPU compared to my prev
