Even if I run it with no frequency setting options (see above) it still runs at 500Mhz.
I remember setting something similar to alias, is there another way to do this other then alias command?
I always ran cgminer with no ./prior to it (as above) from anywhere in the filesystem (so I guess I register it as a command? but alias -p never showed it there?)
If you could run it without ./, it means you installed it; i.e. copied the binary to a location on your path.I remember setting something similar to alias, is there another way to do this other then alias command?

It's possible that the binary on the path with that name, was actually a shell script though, that started cgminer with some specific parameters.
You could check that with which cgminer, which gets you the location of the script and cat /whatever/location/you/got/from/last/command to check the contents.
Then modify that file or delete it altogether.
Now I found I had another copy in different folder (per kanos troubleshoot instructions), deleted it, reinstalled it and now have to only run it with ./ and only from its directory 
(I followed some guide when I was setting this up initially)
If you download the software from https://github.com/kanoi/cgminer, build it and run it from that folder using ./cgminer, I see no reason why it would target a frequency other than the default. Maybe someone else has more ideas than me. (I followed some guide when I was setting this up initially)How do I insert screenshots here btw?
