Hello, I just installed diet-pi on an old AMD 5350, but my cpu speed is capped to 800MHz, instead of 2050MHz
Can you help me fix this?
some info:
#cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_available_frequencies

As you can see in scaling_available_frequencies there is 2050MHz available, but other tools don’t recognize it. In fact, the single cpu is slow. Even the dietpi-config tools (the one to adjust conservative vs performance CPU) is just showing 800MHz as option. Finally, when I check in UEFI at boot, it shows correctly 2050MHz as CPU speed.
