     CLOCKRATE(HW)            XENIX System V             CLOCKRATE(HW)



     Name
          clockrate - Changes clock rate.

     Syntax
          /etc/clockrate  frequency

     Description
          /etc/clockrate alters the interrupt timer clock frequency
          (different from the CPU clock frequency) to bring the system
          clock in sync with the computer's clock.  This frequency is
          expressed in Megahertz (megaHZ) and can be found in the
          computer's hardware reference manual.

          To set a new clockrate to 1.22878, for example, type:

               #  /etc/clockrate 1.22878

          /etc/clockrate is a compiled ``C'' program, which modifies
          the kernel found in /xenix.

          /etc/clockrate only needs to be run once, unless you
          reinstall the  distribution floppies.

     Files
          /etc/clockrate

     Notes
          Your computer may not be able to change the clockrate with
          this utility.
