    Dear all,

    The module DM3730 Torpedo SOM runs al 600 Mhz by default. I'm interested to increase the speed till 1 GHz. I could change the speed using LOLO (v.2.5.0) till 800 MHz but it is not persistent and I'm not able to change it using 'cpufreq-set' command in linux (v3.0.0) because no driver to change the frequency is present. I've recompiled the kernel with the options 'CPU Frequency scaling' enabled.

    I would like to change the frequency of the processor to 1 GHz and make the change persistent.

    Thanks and Best Regards.

    Please review the Articles posted in the TI section and see if the one there on Reading and Changing the clock frequency works for you.

    I've tacken a llok to the article that you've referenced (I told that I was able to change the clock of the processor to 800 MHz from 600 MHz at boot time). I would like to modify the boot script of LOLO. As I've read in the manual, I should update the /dev/config device, but the device is not preset. How can I modify the script?

    Bellow, I list the contents of the /dev folder:

    losh> ls /dev
    S : id0 0

    S : pm0 0
    S : i2c0 0
    S : i2c1 0
    S : null 0
    S : uart0 0
    S : sdmmc0d 0
    S : sdmmc0c 0
    S : sdmmc0b 0
    S : sdmmc0a 0
    S : sdmmc0 0
    S : nand0d 0
    S : nand0c 0
    S : nand0b 0
    S : nand0a 0
    S : nand0 0

    Thanks and Best Regards,

    Look at the LoLo Users Guide. In V 2.5 we removed the config block and added some boot files.
