<title>Processor Information</title>

<para>This page displays information about the system 
Central Processing Unit (<acronym>CPU</acronym>).</para>

<note><para>The exact information displayed is system-dependent.  On
some systems, processor information cannot be displayed
yet.</para></note>

<para>On &Linux;, this information is read from <filename
class="devicefile">/proc/cpuinfo</filename>, which is only available if
the <filename class="directory">/proc</filename> pseudo-filesystem is
compiled into the kernel.</para>

<para>The exact contents of the window will depend on the
<acronym>CPU</acronym>(s) in your machine, but the window is organized
into two columns.  The first column is the parameter, and the second
column is the value of that parameter.</para>

<para>The user cannot modify any settings on this page.</para>
