CPU speed - how to find out


Hi,

I often need to work on a Linux machine through ssh.
(I can only use the shell, no X)

How can I find out which processor is installed at the remote machine and - more important - at how many MHz it's running?

I tried using uname but this gives me only info like x86_64, which is the processor architecture.
But I want to know at how many MHz it's running and also the CPU type (AMD or Intel? Which one? Not only the fact that it's x86, 64 Bit architecture).

Thank you.
