Well they did sometimes in the past. But actually reading the patch: it seems weird to detect the flag in acpi-cpufreq and essentially change /proc/cpuinfo when a module is loaded. Why not in the intel setup function? And why is it not in the standard CPUID 1 features mask anyways? -Andi - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
