Yes, I would like to have more, like this:
  Identify processor and set Clock for that processor right.

I hoped not.

We only used a 857T instead of 855T because the 857T works with 100 MHz
internal (both with 50 MHz extern). 855T are only avaible up to 80 MHz.
Do you use another feature of the 857T?

You are right, that is working except with the warning and our 857T
behaves the same (as slow) like a 855T.
