Just modprobe p4-clockmod

- you'll see the difference

at least, it works with my eeepc 700, maybe 900 is different for that,
but it seems unlikely to me.

Have a look at http://www.codemonkey.org.uk/projects/eeepc/ for an explanation of what p4-clockmod does and why it isn't really changing the speed of the processor (but does cause you to get less work done).
