The only recent machine that I have encountered that did not support this feature is the eeePC 701 with that weird and horrible under-clocked celeron. There may be other processors out there that have this problem, I just have never had my hands on one.
What this means is that you will pretty much have to build your own kernel or find one that is built without PAE. You may wish to check out http://array.org/ubuntu/ which has kernels built specifically for those CPUs. I know this guy personally and we have talked about including the RT patches in his kernel, but to my knowledge this has not happened yet (basically I lost interest once my initial netbook love affair wore off). Out of curiosity, what kind of machine are you trying to install on? -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAksqzb8ACgkQwRXgH3rKGfMwlgCePKcjdrqupNu7BWVPt5hfvv+n LZ0AoILVZhMbsc8jam+TP3bxsOpjYtqz =l+7E -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ 64studio-users mailing list 64studio-users@lists.64studio.com http://lists.64studio.com/mailman/listinfo/64studio-users
