Hi,
Host - windows10
Guest - ubuntu 19.10 or 18.04
cat /proc/cpuinfo shows invalid (always max) frequency. How to configure VmWare or Ubuntu to show correct value from host OS?
Regards
Hi,
which vmware version did you install ?
ARomeo
Vmware -The newest one.
Open-vm-tools 19.0.1
the latest version of which product Workstation Player or Workstation Pro?
15.5.1 of the Workstation Player - build 15018445
You have a windows 10 host, where you installed Vmware Workstation Player 15 and you virtualized a VM with Ubuntu ... correct?
Well, you can post the log or the result screen of the cat / proc / cpuinfo command.
With this we should have everything we need to understand the problem.

Thanks Alessandro.
Yes, right. Host is Windows10 Pro, Ubuntu is a guest.
I try to figure out why my fan is spinnig all the time during VmWare running even if processor is cold. It was one of my hypothesis.
Here is the cat /proc/cpuinfo result:
